I know it's probably bullshiit, more than probably, but what's the problem with finding out 100%? The worst that happens is we(my man and I) end up having dinner out.

I didn't post it here to get insulted, it was just an fyi for others waiting for a jb. That possibly, no matter how far fetched it is, there could be a jb out there. What can I say, I'm an optimist.

Actually, the worst that could happen is your iPad gets bricked or stolen. I'm not trying to insult you. It just isn't possible that there's someone living in a random ghetto who's learned how to jailbreak an iPad 2 when no one else has, and would rather sell it for $20 occasionally to random strangers on craigslist rather than market it online for way, way more. I guarantee you if he could prove himself able to do it, there would be people paying way beyond $20.
 
And you got offended while it was just a joke. Anyway I don't want to argue. Your right on!!

I wasn't offended I was just making a point. And if that was a joke then my idea of a joke is very different to yours. Anyway your a new member so I can only assume your trolling.
 
I'm alive and well and......have a jailbroken ipad2!!! The meeting went fine(I had scrod, hubby had steak). The "guy" was about 18, if that, real baby face, nice as could be, we ended up buying him dinner and giving him $10.

Anyways, I watched the whole thing and I honestly can't tell you what he did. I've always used programs like Redsn0w, Limera1n, or Spirit to jailbreak. He didn't have anything like that. He got straight into the ipad itself(not sure if it matters but he used a mac, which I've never used)and did a bunch of stuff that baffled me. End result was perfect though.

My hubby has been happily downloading from Cydia and Installous since last night.

I didn't bother to read any of the posts since yesterday, figured they'd just annoy me, but I hope this answers any questions.

I never normally say this but, pics or it didn't happen. And do you have a link to the craigslist listing? I think not. Bye troll.

I posted the link in this thread when I first saw it, it might be a few pages back by now, and I was planning on making a video, cause frankly, I wouldn't believe it either without proof. My brother in law is bringing my video cam up later tonight(we loaned it to him for his sons birth, eww), I'll make a video either tonight or tomorrow and get it on youtube asap.

I'm really not out to fool anyone. I saw the ad on CL and thought it might be of interest to those waiting for the jb, so I posted it. Then I talked it over with my husband, we decided to give it a shot and meet the guy as long as we could do it as safely as possible. And to be quite honest, I thought it was crap too. But it turned out not to be. I'm as shocked as anyone.

Here's the link

If this is real wonder if he could sell the instructions to those of us out of state

Dont ur computer have a webcam? use it, just open youtube, (register if you have not yet), select upload video from webcam, you dont need to edit it or anything.

I'm not gonna say this is impossible, cause thats a term better left for physics or math, but heck, this **** is improbable. If its true, he most probably have stolen the code from one of the devs, which is also improbable.

Edit: Also I think your a troll, but I'd be happy if you could prove me wrong.
 
This IS possible seeing as comex's jailbreak wasn't released due to including apple code remember

I didn't even think about a web cam, my laptop doesn't have one, but one of my sons does. I do already have a youtube acct, well technically, my 9 yr old does(he uploads his claymation videos).

I'll see if I can get something going now. Be back to post link asap.

Good idea on the web cam btw.

EDIT: Before I get to it, give me some ideas on what would be considered "proof" so there will be no doubts. What exactly do you want to see?

Interesting thread. Undeniable proof would be:

-Show the iPad 2 (front and back)
-Boot the device, and show the version of the iOS in settings
-Show cydia icon, open it and let it load.

I would also say download something from cydia and use it while on the video... And do not have anything plug to the iPad.

Oh, and for the record, so far, I'm not believing this...
