If you have Applecare it would probably be best to send it back to Apple. If you want to clean it, a damp cloth should work fine. Just make sure that it isn't wet enough to drip water down into the keyboard's circuits.

I've had that kind of thing happen when something (crumbs, etc) get stuck under one of the keys. Try to blow it out either with your mouth (wow, that sounds bad) or a can of compressed air. That should do the trick.

AppleCare is Apple's extended warranty program. See here for more info (you have until the end of your original 1 year warranty to make the purchase decision): http://www.apple.com/support/products/proplan.html
