how is this done? I want to just display one ipad app and have it open automatically when the user turns the ipad on. I want it to lock out all other native ipad controls

don't think you can do that. Not without jailbreak at least...

you may be able to somehow get away with it in the parental controls area....

It may be possible. I cannot say definitively. But, I was in a restaurant recently that passed around iPads in lieu of menus.
I'd reach out to techies in the hospitality industry.

Apple do it themselves in the Apple store. An iPad is usually in front of every product.

Basically, you'll need to restrict access to the home button...

but I want to ship the ipad to someone... so it has to be turned on by the user...

I designed and had stands built and powder coated to our brand colors that hold the iPads (both standing and table-top) and they cover the home button and hide the cables. It's a great way to get the same result, if you have the resources.

IncarcerApp is what you're looking for, but jailbreak only..
