Help Using lock screen with no pin until timeout

I use my S3 with exchange that has security policies enforcing a pin. I can have the pin delayed up to 14 minutes which is good enough for me. Is there anyway to automatically go to the lockscreen yet not enable the exchange PIN. Seems like if I enable the power button to lock the phone, it by default also enables the PIN.

thanks
 
I have the same question. There should be an option to enable swipe lock independently of PIN lock. Any ideas on this? I know you can enable swipe lock WITH PIN lock, but I don't want to have to put in my PIN every time I turn my phone on, but I DO want to have the swipe lock come up to reduce butt dial, etc... I had this ability on my HTC EVO, but it's not evident to me on the S3. Any ideas?
 
Bump. This is the one thing that's driving me nuts about my s3. I want the pretty swipe unlock with the ripple effect when I'm actively using the phone, but I also want some level of security when it's been off for a while. Right now I either have to forgo my pattern screen, or go through two lock screens and enter my pattern every time the phone is idle for 15s, which is just silly...
