I tried it, I got a "Failed c0000005" message. Running Windows 7 on PC. Nothing seems to have happened to the iPad. Does it need to be in recovery mode before you try it?

Same error message for me.

Edit: rebooted the iPad, still the same error. On a Windows 7 laptop by the way.

nope doesn't need to be in recovery mode. Just connected to the Mac. Run the app and press JB. It will reboot, and after a psychedelic screen, you'll have Cydia waiting.

done here. seems to be working. kinda hesitant to install apps yet though ;)

MobileTerminal doesn't work yet. I'm curious what will happen if the iPad has the libraries to run the phone app? Wonder what'll happen if it's tared and copied across?

Twitter replies seem to indicate a bunch of users getting the c0000005 error.

Anyone with Windows 7 get it to work?

Edit: seeing more yweets about this error. Seems windows 7 doesnt work. Im gonna try on my XP laptop.

OpenSSH and ToggleSSH seem to work! Change your root passwd people if you do choose to install OpenSSH ;)
