The story revealed by Ryan Lobbins, the guy who found iPad 2 jailbreak files, stated that he stumbled upon the JailbreakMe files on the site’s servers directory soon after Comex tweeted about a site called qoid.us. Since then Ryan Lobbins has deleted all the iPad 2 jailbreak files.
This all started late one night on the 27th of June. I was playing Star Craft with some friends reading Comex’s twitter updates like every other person waiting for the jailbreak. That is when I had a crazy idea just to search a site he posted in a previous tweet. That site was www.qoid.us , during my initial search, the main thing that came up was comex’s bannerbomb exploit for the wii. This lead me to believe even more that the site was his. The next thing I did was just do a search for directories on his site and that is when I stumbled upon it. I saw a folder called saffron that grabbed my attention, mainly because jbme 2.0 was star.
So what would you do if you stumbled on a website that had all the data for the jailbreak people have been waiting months for? At first I wasn’t sure what to do, let alone believe I found the files. The only true indication that I found them was all the pdf files, deb files named after different iOS devices, and a php file. The last thing I wanted was to just send out all the files saying here they are. As someone who has worked on a project for years in the past I would hate for my work to leak out before my self or the team was ready. Comex had been working on this for almost a year.
The first thing I did was the obvious, test the files. From comex’s tweets at the time I figured they were close to completion and wouldn’t completely brick my iPad. The next was I made a copy of the files for my own purpose of trying on other devices, not to leak them. I didn’t know if comex would have the files moved before I woke up the next day. Then as proof to my friends who had no reason to even want the jailbreak, but wanted to see it I uploaded them to this site. Worst mistake ever.
Now comes the next day, what would you do with the information you gained from decompiling and decompressing the files. You don’t want to leak them, but there has been no information on any updates. People are starting to doubt the jailbreak is even real. What I did was just spread information about the jailbreak, no pictures, no files, just me posting on forums what I know. Of course there were people calling me names saying I am a troll and other names. Next I sent off private messages to two people on the forums I was posting on. At that point after a few messages the only thing I sent was a picture. That was the first and only thing I sent. The picture was of the new jailbreakme website, with the url removed so the site didn’t get out. That was the end of it on June 28th.
I went on vacation on the 30th and won’t be home until July 15th, but my curiosity started to get the better of me last night. I have these files that didn’t work on my iPad, but I wondered if they would work at all. I contacted another person on the forums who was multimediawill aka appreviewer will aka Will Sayer. He tried one of the pdf files and it jailbroke his iPad. I was surprised, he was surprised. He swore up and down he wouldn’t leak it, and I went to bed. That is when I woke up and saw my list of emails streaming in. Immediately the files were deleted, I felt stupid and horrible that my curiosity got the best of me and caused this. I never intended for it to get leaked out this big. In all I apologize to comex for my actions. I don’t want attention, and never wanted to spread his work like Will did. I was just curious, and this curiosity caused this. So in the grand scheme of things the leak was probably 10% my fault, I found the files, made a copy and re-hosted them, but Will was the exact opposite. He wanted attention and spread the news to tech blogs made videos and even spread the links to the files on my site.
As you know Comex has been working on iPad 2 jailbreak quite a while now so he is working fast to get the jailbreak completed before Apple releases iOS 4.3.3. update.
If you are one of those who anxiously waiting for iPad 2 jailbreak then the latest news is that iPad 2 jailbreak will be released on July 5th (tomorrow). The leaked email conversation between Comex and MultiMediaWill reveals that iPad 2 jailbreak will be released by tomorrow.
MultiMediaWill to Comex:
I don’t know if you got my tweets but I am truly sorry for the leak and If I knew it would turn out like this I wouldn’t have leaked it. I was so happy when I got the PDF and it actually worked that I felt I need to show everyone. Dumb decision, I know, but I removed all my videos and deleted the website. Anyways, the beta is really buggy like you said and really annoying sometimes. I hope you are able to release the JB to everyone soon. Thanks.
Comex reply to MultiMediaWill
No, I didn’t see your tweets (I think they were deleted?) But if no more issues come up, it should be ready by tomorrow
For your kind of information that MultiMediaWill is known for the JailbreakMe PDF files leak. Now we have to wait until tomorrow to see the authenticity of this email.
Well, no doubt, Apple iPad is the leader of all tablet PC but now it appears that there are some tablet computers that has become really good iPad competitors. Here we have embedded a video below that is made by Walt Mossberg who compares HP TouchPad with iPad.
On digits today, Walt spoke with Lauren Goode and Julia Angwin about his review of the H-P TouchPad. While the strongest point of the TouchPad is webOS, its poor battery life relative to the iPad, paucity of apps, and numerous bugs are the primary reasons why he’s not recommending the TouchPad over the iPad for most consumers.
You want to run multiple iPad apps side by side but unable to proceed?. Here is a solution, a new jailbreak Cydia tweak allow you to run multiple apps on iPad side by side. This jailbreak tweak is designed and developed by Aron Ash, known iPhone developer, has successfully operated two apps side by side on his iPad.
Unfortunately, the name of this jailbreak tweak is not yet announced but hopefully it will be released soon. We will let you know once it is released. Stay Tuned.
The Official Skype app for iPad will soon be available for download from the Apple App Store. Skype will release its Official iPad app on June 28th (Tuesday).
For your kind of information since the release of iPad 2, Official Skype app for ipad was not available and thus iPad owners were not fully capitalize its dual cameras. Though, the Skype app for iPad can work on iPad but it doesn’t looks nice because it is not optimized for it.
It has been speculated that Skype intentionally not releasing its official iPad app to undermine Apple’s own video calling service, FaceTime. However, recently Skype executive says that Apple has actually been very supportive of Skype.
Now it has been confirmed that Official Skype app for iPad is coming soon. More importantly, the video of Skype app for iPad went live on YouTube and soon after Skype made this video private. The below embed video of Official Skype app for iPad looks nice with easy to use interface.
The upcomingiPad 2 jailbreak using JailbreakMe3.0 will have much fast install time. This has been confirmed by the comex, developer of jailbreakMe via twitter.The Comex has explained the method in his long tweet that how he managed to reduce iPad 2 jailbreak install time.
Comex method that will reduce time of iPad 2 jailbreak:
“If you don’t know, the stashing approach jailbreaks have been using for years– Cydia’s “Reorganizing Filesystem”– involves moving some large directories from the small / partition into the large /var partition, then creating symlinks from the original to the new location. This both ensures that any additional stuff put in those directories by packages will end up in the /var partition, and frees up space on the / partition for files created outside of those directories. However, the process has some issues, like taking forever to do when you jailbreak (I am a bit fanatical about speed), pretty much requiring the jailbreak to reboot the system to ensure there aren’t any running applications pointing to the old files (ditto about speed, I want a jailbreak to not even require a respring, as in star, but since star used stashing, some obscure things could cause issues before a reboot), and seriously confusing the sandbox code in the kernel (because each application has a sandbox with a list of allowed filenames, but after the symlink has moved files, the filenames no longer match), requiring that code to be patched (it needs to be patched anyway these days because tweaks have to run under the sandboxes of the applications they’re hooking, but depend on accessing various directories; but it still feels good to get rid of a kludge).
With unionfs (which was saurik’s idea originally), new files are created in the /var partition, and merged with files in the corresponding directories in the / partition, so no files need to be moved, no descriptors are invalidated, and I think the sandbox code won’t notice what happened. It also opens the door for upgrading the base operating system without destroying the jailbreak files (although maybe iOS 5 delta updates will already allow this? I haven’t looked at them yet).
I’ve wanted to do this since literally a year ago (that’s the date of the nullfs checkin, since I was dumb and thought I wanted that instead of unionfs), but I never got around to making it work properly.
So, I just hope that I can get rid of the crashes my meddling with unionfs’s code have introduced, and fix it for the iPad 2 (my dumped copies of iPad 2 kernels do not include symbols; I wrote a small BinDiff-like tool to copy over symbols from a kernel for another device, but it’s not perfect) and that there aren’t any performance issues.”
We will let you know when jailbreakme 3.0 for iPad 2 will be released. So stay Tuned!

Three people have been arrested and sent to Chinese jail because they have facilitated leaking iPad 2 information before its official launch date, according to Wall Street Journal.
The court announced the decision Tuesday in statements on its official account at Sina Weibo, a Twitter-like microblogging service in China. It said that Xiao Chengsong, general manager of Shenzhen MacTop Electronics Co., had offered 20,000 yuan, or about $3,000, plus discounts on MacTop products to a former Hon Hai employee named Hou Pengna, for information about the iPad 2. The court said Ms. Hou then paid Lin Kecheng, a Hon Hai research-and-development employee, to get digital images of the device’s back cover from last September, six months before the iPad 2 was publicly announced.
If you remember before iPad 2 officially announced, some Chinese site leaked iPad 2 hardware details. After investigation of three month, Chinese police now has arrested three culprits.
All three culprits have been sent to jail for 12-18 months, and the fine ranging from $4,500 and $23,000.

More evidence suggest that Apple will release Retina Display for iPad with maximum 1,536 x 2,048 pixels resolution which is double compared to current iPad resolution.
It is reported by Techunwrapped that the possible 2048×1536 iPad display has been found in new Twitter framework in iOS 5.
As I was going through the iOS SDK I came across some images in the new Twitter .framework. The resolution appears to be 1,536 x 2,048.
Apparently the Twitter.framework is the only framework I found to have these enormous images.
Previously, number of images found in iPad apps showing 1024×768 pixels screen resounding which is twice the size of current iPad. All these development suggest that similar pixel-doubling strategy will also be implemented in iPhone 4′s Retina Display.
