Thanks. Definitely under warranty, as it's only been driven 700 miles.

The needle is pointing to 600 or 650 (ish), just above halfway between 0 and
1 (times 1000 is ~ 650).

I took the car to my dealer today. A mechanic test drove it while I rode
passenger. He looked at the tach and felt the vibration and told me it is
normal.

So, I'm curious to know more about your opinion on the matter. Where should
it be idling, and how would my dealer correct the vibration, were they to
attack it?
