[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1234086"] IMHO there is exactly NO reason to jailbreak an iPad 2 unless you are in dire need of one of the very specific programs not available on the App Store. It prevents you from upgrading to the latest iOS quickly, sometimes waiting weeks until you can do so, and even when they make it fairly easy, you will have to re-do the process again every single time Apple changes something. Not worth the hassle IMO. Having said that, I *did* jailbreak my original iPad because I had to -- it's the only way to project the iPad's screen through to a projector. I teach classes in this stuff and had to have a way to demo the iPad. The iPad 2 makes this moot as they can do it with an HDMI dongle, but I don't have the iPad 2. [/QUOTE]
