iPad 2 Jailbreak beta leaked, best to stay away
Last night the iPad 2 Jailbreak that Comex has been working on for JailbreakMe.com was leaked online by a beta tester, and this morning it's all over the web in post and video form. And we're not going anywhere near it.
We've waited this long for an iPad 2 Jailbreak, we might as well wait the last few days for a well tested, verified, proper release version. Hacking iPad 2 was most likely non-trivial for Comex, and messing around with leaked betas seems needlessly risky, unless you have more time, spare iPad 2s, and urges to tinker than you know what to do with.
Jump into the Jailbreak Forum if you absolutely have to mess around with it, but otherwise hold stead and lets hope the real JailbreakMe.com launches soon in all its PDF exploiting, iPad 2 Jailbreaking glory.

I did it, works great Rene, don't say stay away nub!
He has to say that. Lol everyone else is saying stay away from it. No one has even reported any bugs whatsoever lol. But I'll just wait. It's whatever aha
Comex tweeted last night that the beta JB had no bugs, this is that beta. It is his jailbreak that is coming tomorrow posted one day early. Same thing.
So is it coming out tomorrow?
this is incorrect....if you look at the latest tweets from comex you'll see that these are in fact buggy..
maybe he was trying to "punish" the people who jumped on the bandwagon.....
Whatever man, it is a true statement and the JB works perfectly. The only punishment is for the people who didn't grab the PDF quick enough.

What's so great about a jail broken iPad? I have my phone jail broken, and i love it, but still not sure if there's really a point for the pad
The only reason for me to jailbreak my iPad 2, is for the Mame4all emulator. It would be good to see how it performs, with the extra extra horsepower under the hood. It'll only be for a short while anyway, until iOS 5 drops.
