Now that the Taig jailbreak for iOS 8.3 has been released (despite many existing bugs), I need a little help deciding which of my devices to jailbreak. I have an iPod Touch 5th gen and an iPad Air 2, both running iOS 9 Beta 2. I want to have one device running the iOS 9 betas and one jailbroken. Which one should I jailbreak and why? Just looking for some opinions as I am having a tough time making a decision. Thanks in advance!
 
Jailbreak the iPod obviously. The iPad can do the true multitasking. The iPod doesn't get much of anything besides new music ui and app switcher

I considered this. The only reason that I was thinking about possibly jailbreaking the iPad is because I would actually use and enjoy the features of the jailbreak whereas a jailbroken iPod I would still only use it for what I currently use it for: music only. Good point though, the multitasking on the iPad is a very nice feature. Unfortunately, the true multitasking currently only works with some of the stock apps. You can use a side view type feature on 3rd party apps, but the side view thing is useless in my book.
