Where are the proximity sensors?

History

The iPad 2 can detect when the smart cover is closed. Before release, there was much speculation that it would include up to 3 IR proximity sensors. Are there any proximity sensors in the iPad 2? Is it possible to use the touch screen to detect when the cover is closed?

The iPad doesn't have any, it's magnetic switch triggered by the smart cover, not a proximity sensor like on the iPhone.
