JB no issues but honestly am really underwealmed by it compared to my iphone4. Honestly cannot see myself keeping it come ios5.
as u launch safari quickly hit stop loading or press the window button and close the window that loads the pdf file. Its by design. Ipad will refresh the last page opened. so it tried to load pdf file again which causes safari to crap out. its a vicious circle
Saurik put a stop to allowing files to download so we get to wait again. Probably another week I'm sure.
I had a successful jailbreak when i was in 4.3. However i found some bugs like you can't save vpn settings. And also the wifi settings page were a bit messed up. It wouldnt allow me to forget my network it was stuck. If anybody had jbroken theirs pls confirm.
Anyway i decided to restore to 4.3.3 and wait for the official release.

I havent had any issues regarding Safari, so thats a bonus on my end.
The only other thing ive noticed is that the camera connection kit is no longer recognized by the os. When inserted it would normally displsy the photos app with the camera tab, and now... Nothing. Doesnt work with ifile either.
Since I jailbroke, Logmein no longer remembers my information, so I have to type it in each time I use it - which is fine, that doesnt bother me. ( i dont have any user name and passwords saved on the ipad or even my imac for websites. I always type in my credentials.
Retinapad works amazing
Sbsettings works for the most part but the wifi toggle does not.
Fullforce works (obviously not all apps are supported but it works).
Fakeclockup works.
Backgrounder works nicely esp with Multiflow.
Ive had no issues with Cydia either.
I cant comment on Installous as i dont believe in stealing apps. Honestly, apps are pretty frigging affordable. I just spent $11 on 10 apps that would have costed me over $73! Gotta love holiday sales! Appshopper is wonderful for finding discounted apps!
Other than that I havent noticed much else. It is a bummer that the SD card adaptorpper (and USB) no longer operate. Once the offical Jailbreak comes out, I will restore and rejailbreak in hopes this error has been corrected.
By no means am I complaining. Comex did a wonderful job, even if this was a beta jailbreak. I for one, would definitely pay for future Jailbreaks. I value his hard work and dedication, and he is the man!!

Ahh yes Mr.Reader asks me to entr my password everytime and blogsy , other than that it works.
I havent installed any type of theming addon. Not just yet.
And your welcome for posting.
I jail broke my ipad yesterday evening. It's a 16 gb wifi only iPad 2.
Cydia installed perfectly fine so did installous.
Was able to install another 12 softwares without any issues.
But as you said wifi page settings have messed up.when I try to connect wifi network though I am able to connect to a network it won't show me any ip or router address. On my friends network I am unable to surf at all.
The problem is I am unable ot restore as the moment I connected pc it took a backup of the current system and I was not sure how to stop it as I had started using iOS since few weeks only. Could you please advice what should I do to get the back to normalcy.
iOS restoration is done through iTunes. Make sure you have the latest version of iTunes. Once you plug in your iPad, iTunes should recognize it and open. You will then be prompted to Update or Restore. Select Restore and let iTunes work its magic. It will download the LATEST firmware and install it.
Im glad i wasnt only on the same boat. I have the exact problem with wifi even if i reset network settings. Did u try setting up vpn? I couldnt save the configuration no matter what i tried. I use vpn for installous as its is block here in my location. Thats why i decided to jump to 4.3.3. Although i tried saving my 4.3 blobs thru TU. it only saved 4.3.3 and 5.01b.
Ive read somwhere thats not possible since apple stopped signing 4.3 blobs. Thats what happend to me. I had 4.3. I used tiny umbrella and when i clicked save shsh. I only got 4.3.3 and 5.01b. Theres an alternative called ifaith which can save blobs unsigned by apple but doesnt work with ipad 2
