first off im very new to this
my ipad is jail broken. it has cydia, installous mx tube ...i want to remove it all and bring it back to where the ipad was before the jailbreak . how do i do this safely . and please be specific because i dont have much knowledge and i dont want to brick my ipad ...

also i tried installing ios 5 last night and it keeps giving me this ipad is not eligible ....is this because of the ipad being jailbroke ?
i was told installing ios 5 would remove the jailbreak . is this true ?
sorry for all the questions
 
update iTunes to latest version, then connect your ipad and choose restore under Summary tab, you see when you click on your ipad device in iTunes. this will erase your ipad and load the ios5. and yes, this will remove the jailbreak, and if ipad 2, will not be jailbreakable.
