IPad won't switch on, got the waiting circle thingy all the while. How do I get out of this?

Any help with iPad2 that has locked itself completely?  First time I've used it. Stuck, not used Apple product before

You need to activate it in iTunes on your computer before you can use it. Connect your iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. When are connected you will be prompted as to what to do next.
If you have activated it and it will not turn on hold down on the sleep button at the top of the iPad and the round home button at the bottom of the iPad - at the same time - for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears, then let go of the buttons and see if the iPad will now start.
