iPad jailbreak after less than 24 hours

Isn't that the method which was already known on iPhone but not published, exactly because they were waiting for iPad to come out? (so they could use the same method on both)

Hooray! The children are saved!

I don't see why companies even bother doing this, if it'll just get jail broken a few days after release....especially if it's such a popular product like the iPad.

This isn't so surprising to me. The iPad runs iPhone OS and the 3.2 seed has been available to developers for some time.<p>"iPhone OS" is a bit of a misnomer, since it refers to the software running on iPhone, iPod touch, and now iPad. (<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone_OS" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone_OS</a>)

Slightly OT but is anyone aware of variant OS installations on iPad (was the mentioned Cydia one example?).<p>Love the feel of device, would be much happier browsing with Chrome, and copying media/software as I wish. The Apple hardware/software coupling always frustrates me.

Good; so there is at least a glimmer of possibility that the iPad can be useful for something.

This is why I F<i></i>*ING love hackers.
