For the iPad 2, this jailbreak was pretty late. Apple had secured iPad 2 pretty well and some even said that the iPad 2 jailbreak may never come. Not until a couple of days ago, when @comex announced that it was ready, after the glitch where a beta tester had leaked the unfinished Jailbreak to the world.

For the iPad 2, here are the steps:

1. Ensure that you have Internet connectivity on your iPad, via WiFi or 3G.
2. Go to Settings -> General -> About and note the ‘Version’ from there. It should be 4.3.3. If Yes, skip to step 11.
3. If the Version is less than 4.3.3, please search Google for ‘Download iPad 2 ipsw 4.3.3‘. The first search result that you find should be good enough, (limera1n.cc or redmondpie).
4. Choose the File corresponding to your iPad (WiFi, WiFi+3G, CDMA/GSM). Remember, selecting the wrong file may result in another download! No other harm will be caused as iTunes will not restore it to your device.
5.  Connect your iPad to your computer and start iTunes.
6. iTunes will connect to your device. iTunes will tell you that an update for your device is available. Ignore this advise at the moment.
7. Right click on the device in the left pane and select backup, just in case something nasty happened.
8. Once the backup is complete, select the device once again in the left pane. You will see the home screen of the device, with the option to ‘Check for Update’ and ‘Restore’.
9. Press ‘Shift’ and click ‘Restore’ of you are on Windows, or ‘Option’ and click ‘Restore’ if on Mac. Choose your recently downloaded ipsw and let the restore begin.
10. Once the restore is done, eject your device from the computer.
11. Check that Internet is active on the iPad.
12. Open Safari and type http://www.jailbreakme.com in the address bar.
13. You will see a button ‘Free’ on left side of the screen.
14. Touch the button. It will turn in a green Install button. Tough it again.
15. Safari will automatically close at this time. Don’t Worry. Your Job is done!
16. Somewhere on the Home Screen, you will find the Brown Cydia icon, installed or downloading.
17. You Are Freed!

Post questions if you have and I will be glad to assist where I can.

About 10 minutes ago, I stumbled upon a great tool – WordMobi . I was directed to this site by an unofficial Nokia E71 blog – E71.wordpress.com. WordMobi is available here . The developer claims that the application will work without any trouble on Nokia E71 and has also been tested on Symbian 5 series . It requires Python to be installed on the phone before WordMobi is installed and there is a very good installation guide here .

I particularly like the insert options. There is no need for you to know HTML anymore. The application has everything set for you, in form of start and stop. So if you want to insert a link, all you need to do is select Insert Link , and type the address. You can continue o write your text after that, and once you are done, again go to Insert Link and select it!

I have learned to not use any P2P software to share music or torrent sites to download software. I download demos of Games and if I like any, I purchase them after looking for the best deal! I enjoy buying good music because it ensures that the good artists will be encouraged to perform better and create masterpieces.

There are times when I am stuck because the task at hand requires a specialist software, which may be expensive. For example, creating or editing a document may require an Office suite. The first option that comes to our mind is Microsoft Office. There are however other cheaper Office suites available in the market, which offer almost the same features. There are also free software options, which can fill in the place of your existing software suite, without any learning curve or costs!

I am trying to make an extensive list of freeware. The purpose of this list will be to let users start from a free Operating System (which may be a trial from Microsoft) and add on other free software which they will require during the course of business.

I will try to divide this list into interest categories, like business, home and entertainment, but that will of course depend upon the number of freeware I find in each category! If you have any suggestions, please feel free to comment.
