iPhone / iPad ‘Spirit’ jailbreak released to the world
We’ve been seeing the iPad / iPhone Spirit jailbreak demoed here and there for a few weeks now, and here we go — the download is now available. The untethered jailbreak works on activated iPhone OS devices running 3.1.2, 3.1.3, and 3.2, although iPad owners are warned that “all this is still sort of beta” and might require you to restore if things break. That’s not the worst thing in the world, we suppose — anyone taking the plunge?

iPad 3G works on T-Mobile, can be hacked to send text messages
Here’s a pair of interesting iPad 3G hacks for your lazy Sunday — first, Apple’s tablet is apparently unlocked out of the factory, so trimming a T-Mobile SIM to micro SIM size will get you up and running on EDGE with no further hassle. Not terribly useful in the States, but good news for Europeans who’ll have several carrier options right out the gate. Secondly, MuscleNerd of the Dev Team has discovered it’s apparently possible to send text messages from a jailbroken 3G iPad using a T-Mobile or non-iPad AT&T SIM — the stock AT&T SIM restricts SMS and calls, apparently. Check videos of both hacks after the break.
