USB power adapter or to your computer. Earlier iPad models use a 30-pin to USB Cable.
Multi-Touch screen
A few simple gestures—tap, drag, swipe, and pinch—are all you need to use iPad and its apps.
Sleep/Wake button
You can lock iPad and put it to sleep when you’re not using it. Locking iPad puts the display to
sleep, saves the battery, and prevents anything from happening if you touch the screen. You still
get FaceTime calls, text messages, alarms, and notications, and can listen to music and adjust
the volume.
