so we'll have to JB our pads if we haven't yet done so? Might be the straw that makes me JB then
To anyone here who wants a cracked copy of Optimum 1.0, listen up:
I know how we can acquire this coveted gem of an app. But it's going to take a little bit of elbow grease on our parts.
Let's start with the basics, with what we are looking for. We are looking for iPad 1 owners who have downloaded the Optimum 1.0 app. Although rare, this combination of people and things does exist. And not only that, this rare breed has graced this site, has likely even graced this thread.
So what can we do?
Well we have two options:
-We can sit on our asses with our thumbs up our butts and wait for someone to give this to us.
Or
-We can man up, target and find these individuals and tell them them our situation, inform them of what they can do and take what is ours and what we deserve.
If you are serious about ceasing this opportunity, then continue reading. If not, go have a bowl of ice cream or something while your mom cleans your room.
Let's mobilize as a task force and seek out all forums members in threads from early in the month who discussed installing this app and accessing it over VPN. Even if these members do not report successfully implementing and accessing a VPN for roaming connectivity, they still might have the app installed. Let's seek these people out and PM them. It won't take long, only a few minutes of our time. But these people are out there and we need to find them. We can find them. and we will find them.
I'm going to start now. Let's make **** happen.

Best investment? A 4G MiFi. I'm traveling connecting through Chicago and I'm watching LiveTV as I wait for my next flight. The video quality over 4G is soooo much clearer than over 3G. It doesn't skip at all.
LOL I know but I can't strip the DRM since my iPad isn't jail broken. Either we find someone with 1.0 on a jail broklen iPad or we wait until an iPad 2 jail break comes out for me to upload it.
I just looked and saw I have V1.0.1 on a non-jailbroken ipad. anything I can do to help with this situation?
Very sad...VPN does not work... Possibly
Now that VPN does not work directly from the iPad, Instead of jail breaking your device and hacking on some illegal source (which they can make some validation code later that you cannot hack in yourself). Why not connect to a vpn'd tether (iphone / android device). Essentially it is the same thing but the IOS api cannot account for if the device being connected through vpn.

Its not going to work that way. cablevision fixed their 1.0.1 app that it doesn't connect via ipad's VPN. how is it going to work while being tethered to your iphone?
He's thinking that the app checks if there is a VPN connection on the iPad. If the connection is done on an iPhone then tethered to the iPad it wouldn't see a VPN connection on the iPad.
Ipad 2 Jailbreak Imminent
Ok - so the Ipad 2 jailbreak will be released in as little as a day and it will be as simple as going to a website like the jailbreak.me that was done in the past. I expect someone with an Ipad 2 and Optimum 1.0 to help us all out!
