Jailbreaking the iPad

[santaf]

man why not? hah waiting for the new os so apple cant fix it?

[StealthBravo]

pretty much

[santaf]

makes sense guess it will be worth the wait

[battlecrushr]

howd u get the firmware

[dmtrack18]

can wait for the jailbreak release.... customizing my ipad is going to be sick....

[whereswaldo]

The springboard will definatly hold at least 9x9

jailBREAK

Officially its still a tethered jailbreak. The untethered jailbreak will not be released for some time.

tethered means that a restore un-jailbreaks it?

jailBREAK

no a restore always unjailbreaks an ipod touch or iphone tethered means that when you turn your device back on after you turn it off you need to run the program on your computer again

[Windmeel]

It would be stupid to release an untethered Jailbreak or any Jailbreak for the iPad before iPhone 4G. Why give Apple the heads up? Even if there was a way to JB the 3GS/IPT3 without Tethering (New bootrom of course) I wouldn't want it to be released. This HAS to make sense to everyone.

[santaf]

that does make sense haha so i dont get why you got so upset about it haha i wasn't complaining it wasn't released i just didnt know there was one jsut not released yet i wouldnt' want apple to be able to fix it before the 4g comes out

With Shrink you could fit 50 X 50 on the home screen.

[StealthBravo]

haha. Well you could fit alot of icons on there. I cant wait to jailbreak it

[braceyoself]

I'm only mildly interested in the iPad right now. I'll be more excited when the device gets a stable jailbreak tool. The customization possibilities are great with a screen that large. Gimme iBlank, Springjumps and Categories and i'll be as happy as can be. The vanilla interface is so unattractive, in my opinion.

im sure with its 1ghz processor. and probably about 512 - 1gb ram it will be able to run osx or 10.4. assuming its ppc

are you implying that a certain type of jailbreak or jailbreaking app could put OS X on the iPad. I'm pretty sold on the iPad as is knowing that a jailbreak would definitely be possible but that would make it an absolute necessity if that's what's being implied here.

[fungrified]

yeah it would be awesome with full computer functionality

I agree... the basic theme for the itablet looks extremely boring, although the tablets capabilities are sweet with more power under the hood. I'm just envisioning a themed out itablet with weather and calendar widgets, springjumps and animated wallpapers and sorts. It's really gonna make a statement when your sporting a tricked out itablet in public.

i wish it had osx, it would have been the only osx hardware i would have bought. but some one would have to do some hackintosh to get osx to run a chip thats not already written into the os. when and iff that happens im getting one, a hand held touch screen osx, ooman that sounds sweet and sexy

[Poseidon79]

Not only a special chip but a complete software integration for an on screen touch keyboard.... It's not gonna happen people.

i agree. Plus who needs osx...why not put windows 7 on this baby its already got special stuff inside for touch screens.
