Does anyone know why we don't have lock screen notifications like they show on the iOS 5 video on Apple's website? We basically have the same bubble alert on the lock screen, when you get a text or whatever instead of showing the list of notifications and being able to access them from the lock screen (like on the video).

You probably need to change the alert style for each app under notifications.

You don't get the list look until you have more than one notification pending. Say you've got an unread text message (just one), you get the popup. But if another text message or other notification comes in before you've read the first one, then the "list" appears under the clock.

Actually, you can get the list with just one notification. It will initially show up as the bubble, but if you let the screen go back to sleep on its own, or if you put it to sleep yourself, the next time you turn it on, it will show the "list"
