iPad 2 Jailbreak questions.
So i'm totally new to the iPad and jailbreaking scene, please pardon if these things have been covered elsewhere...
I just obtained this iPad 2 and the person i purchased it from already had it upgraded to 5.1 I understand that there is no current jailbreak method for the iPad 2 running 5.1 firmware. I also understand that i cannot currently downgrade to 5.0.1. I also understand that there will be a method release on redsnow or absynth which will allow downgrading from 5.1 to 5.0.1. My question is if i didn't own the device when it had 5.0.1, if it ever did, and save these things called SHSH blobs ( which i have no idea what they are) will i ever be able to jail break this ipad?
Could i not just get those blobs from somewhere on the internet?
Thanks

SHSH Blobs are not needed to jailbreak, just to downgrade. And no, SHSH are unique to each device
