"Let's talk briefly about the unlock and main menu button. Let's say your phone is in standby now, just like it is. We'll say that it's been in your pocket for a while; you haven't used it for a while. The screen will actually turn off to save the battery. What you do is click the button on top, just once. That will actually bring up your screen. On this screen you have your time and then, just the standard background and a slider that says slide to unlock. You can touch and do whatever you want, and it won't do anything. You'll grab it and just slide it across, and it will bring you back up to the main menu. That's how you're going to use the phone if it's been off for a while, or in your pocket, or wherever it was. As I mentioned earlier, once you're done doing something, and want to get back to the main menu, you can click the main menu button, which is right there in the center, this little button in the center. This will take you back from any of the features on the iPhone. Let's say you're done with any of the features on your iPhone for now, and you know that you want to be in standby. You'll click once on the top; it will make a little clicking sound, and it will put your phone in standby to save the battery. Those are the features for unlocking, locking, standby, and menu buttons."
