New iPad Already Jailbroken Just Hours After Release

iOS hacker MuscleNerd announced on Twitter today that Apple’s latest iPad has already been jailbroken, providing a pair of screenshots that show the jailbroken device running Cydia. He also noted, however, that there’s still a lot to do to prepare a public release. Even so, it’s promising news for would-be jailbreakers of the new iPad!

Update: Shortly after this initial jailbreak was announced, fellow jailbreak expert i0n1c demonstrated an untethered jailbreak for the new iPad.
