No Home Screen?

in iPad edited January 2014
Is the iPad 2 without home screen? you know the slide to unlock bar? I see the instant on feature with the cover but even in the Steve Jobs vid there was no Home Screen. Is it gone? How do you lock the screen otherwise?

    You lock it by locking it. The Smart Cover exists to remove the useless step of hitting Home or Sleep/Power and then swiping. If there's a passcode set, the Smart Cover obviously won't be waking the device.



    If you don't HAVE a Smart Cover, it locks and unlocks as normal.

    That's not the "home screen". What you're referring to is the "lock screen"
