It’s been ages since we are hearing that iPad 2 jailbreak is coming soon. The question arises: Why iPad 2 jailbreak is taking so long? and the answers is: The new Apple A5 processor-based architecture in the iPad 2 is proving to be a difficult puzzle to solve. The Limera1n exploit, which worked on A4-based iOS devices like iPod touch 4G and iPhone 4, is hardware-based and, well, since iPad 2 is A5-based, the exploit doesn’t work on it. And so the community has to find an all-new exploit.
JailbreakMe is the simplest jailbreak tool ever, that allows iOS device users to jailbreak thier devices via Safari, all you have to do is “Slide to Jailbreak”. It’s not clear if JailbreakMe 3.0 will be able to jailbreak both iOS 4.3.3 and iOS 5.0 or it will be only limited to iOS 4.3.3. There’s no estimate of arrival but it’s look very imminent.

Above photo found on jailbreakme.com shows a signboard that says ‘PDF’ along with ski slope and diamond icon. What does that mean? I guess this is pointing towards a potential PDF based exploit.
Comix himself posted a tweet that gives us no idea about the jailbreak but teases us. Anyways, whether this is for iOS 4.3.3 or iOS 5, an iPad 2 jailbreak would be good news by now.
