David,

Did you open the device back up and check to ensure the ribbons were properly seated?

Also have you tried any other region of the devices screen? What I mean is power it on and then rotate the device 90 degrees and see if the the slide to unlock will work then. If you can get it to work in some areas and not others then you have a bad digitizer. If you can't get any response at all, you should really reseat all the connections inside the device. Otherwise it can be a damaged connector or digitizer ribbon.

Oh yeah, and the digitizer connection point is along the left side of the device at the top (the double connector).
