Twitter user MuscleNerd sprung the news that an iPad had been jailbroken by Twitter user comex on Sunday.
Since the iPad runs a version of the iPhone OS, hackers assumed they would be able to jailbreak the iPad to install and run apps that aren’t available at Apple’s App Store. Since the hack isn’t publicly available yet, new iPad owners will have to wait to jailbreak their brand new tablets, but it seems likely that they won’t have to wait long.
