Some of the updates will make you go through the "Setup" process again. But all your "stuff" is still there (generally). Once you've gone through the "slide to set up" and then follow the prompts and fill in details where required, you'll find (or should find) you're back to your "normal iPad" (if it then needs to restore anything it will continue to do this from the backup).
