How do you turn the phone off?

Hold down the power button (the one you are using to lock the phone) - a prompt will ask you what to do after a second or two.

Thanks. I had tried that before, but without success. Looks like the phone must not already have the screen off, nor can it already be locked for this to work.

Edit - I should have asked this a long time ago. I have been fumbling with the case, then the back cover to pull the battery when I could have simply powered down.
