Good. Maybe a jailbroken ipad will make the thing worth while.

Jailbreaking an iPad won't do anything. Keep in mind, the only reason to jailbreak an iPhone is to add an unlock. Secondary benefits: themes, tethering. Everything else has been added since 1.0

Why would you jeailbreak an iPad? 3G version coming in just a few weeks, and theres no telephony so why unlock?

I held an iPad on launch day, man. And used one. Dear God they're gorgeous.

You could potentially load flash and ACTUALLY be able to use the entire internet, instead of just the stuff Apple controls.

I love how apple claims that Flash is a resource hog and it doesnt work well blah blah, when they show COD:WOW playing on it in commercials. Gimme a break. I think they just dont want flash content on there because free flash content would steer ppl away from thier App store.

You can't load Flash on it. In much the same way I can't play TF2 natively on Mac. Not yet.

And yes, Flash IS a resource hog. Due to the way the code is written it eats up memory and just sits there like a homeless man, squatting your resources for nothing. On portable devices it causes the battery to drain far too quick for justification.

Oh, and what's that, you won't be seeing it in Windows Phone 7? Hmmm.

I played with one at Best Buy. I wasn't impressed. Jailbreaking has its uses - the big thing being people loading pirated applications.
