Default 2005 honda accord running a little rough

I bought a 2005 honda accord exl 4 cylinder a month ago straight from
the dealer. I've noticed that the engine is running just a tiny bit
rough, but I don't know if this is normal or not. I don't want to take
it to the dealer to fix it, because I don't really trust them to tell
me if that's a normal thing or not. If it doesn't lead to problems
later down the line, then I can live with it, but is it something I
should be concerned about? If so, is there a place I can take it to to
give me an unbiased analysis?

They build these engines so tight, they tend to get smoother after
break-in.

Thanks to both of you. How long should I wait to see if the problem
goes away? It's still there after 2,000 miles. I did not mention that
the car had over 500 miles on it when I purchased it; is this normal,
and is it possible someone could have damaged the engine during this
time period?

It's really starting to bother me, because I recently drove 2 other
honda accords (2004 and 2003) because they belonged to my relatives.
They had 10,000 and 43,000 miles respectively, and those cars felt
great (little or no engine flutter).
