I just bought an iPad 2 and was pleased when it had iOS 5.0.1, instead of being updated to 5.1, so that I could JB it. I tried absinthe 0.4(current version correct?) and get the "URL cannot be shown" message. I saw that a few people had the same problem a couple of months ago and a restore helped but now that apple isn't signing iOS 5.0.1 and there's no SHSH blogs saved for this device on 5.0.1, I can't restore? Is there a way to get the JB to work without having to restore?
 
You can Not restore But try to use the lastest redsn0w yes the lastest redsn0w can jailbreak iPad 2 on 5.0.1 ..
