Looks to me to be iOS 5.1 though - which doesn't exhibit the behavior I am talking about. I need an iPad running 4.x.

ResignActivation is called if the device is turned off or the lock screen of the iPad fires up. DidEnterBackground is called if the HOME button is pushed while the app is running.

From what I can see, the app does not go into the background on these devices (certainly not on the CEO's iPad). I know this because in my DidEnterBackground, I stop my timer - however I can get him to close the lid on his iPad, and it continues to call the server in the timer events. Later versions of the OS (5 and up) do not do this - they put the app in the background.

In 5 and up, once a device is locked, the app is pushed to the background. Not so on iOS prior to 5 - but I would like to know when the user has locked the device so I know to take different actions from the server. I've googled and come up empty - am suspecting there is no way to tell?
