RE: newbie to Prime
Hello Ed,

We ran into issues with early Primes where the cheer mass of calculators in a pallet/box would turn calculator ON during transit and storage.

This resulted in calculator battery being drainned by the time they arrived in customer's hands :-(

This is where the "lock" screen comes from. It was created to force a user interaction with the calculator at start time (and it auto power offs after only 30s), to try to limit the damages described above.

The "slide to unlock" followed by a setup wizzard screen is indeed a standard of today's smartphones...
This actually had to be explained to me as I personally use a "dumbPhone"! (https://static.fnac-static.com/multimedi...0-Noir.jpg) Which is actually trying to be too smart for it's own good. "Bring Back the 6110!!!"

This asside, I do understand your disarray faced with a completely new concept, especially when it is not documented! I will see what we can do about adding this in the Quick Start Guide.

Now that it does work, I do hope that you will enjoy your Prime and find it usefull (if not smart)!
