iPad will def be hacked as well lol

As it sits, the iPad is stupid as hell. No flash, no multitasking? What the ? It's a friggin dual-core ARM Cortex A9 setup like the NVIDIA Tegra2 SOC and the OS doesn't support multitasking? What a joke.
And seriously, "the best web experience." Hah. HAH. No Flash? Everything uses Flash.
Here's something from TheFlashBlog, run by a guy who works for Adobe...

It's a ty netbook. At this point I'd rather just buy a netbook, buy the touch module off ebay and pop it in. $350 for the net book, $80 for the module, and boom, have fun.

I think it's a huge mistake to just take the iPhone OS and put it on this thing. The only apps which looked interesting were the ebook reader and the calendar. But even then, why not just buy a kindle?
well the kindle is restricted to only amazon ebooks (AFAIK)
The kindle is single purposed whereas the iPad has more functionality. However, in terms of ebook reading...the iPad is just a glorified computer monitor....thus a pain to read on.
I guess ill have to keep searching for an ebook reader that does more than ebook readin for a 300-500 price range!

I know that, the whole mumbo jumbo of 4.0 & multitasking coming to the iPhone's FW was "suppose" to come out on this date ... I don't beleive in any Apple Rumors now. Just let Apple do it's job and present the new featues.
Very major dissapointIng to all those waiting for the iPad w/ multitasking, which was suppose to be FW 4.0

Can someone point me in the right direction?
I have an app called Pocket Informant and it's latest ver is not compatible with the iPhone's 3.0.1 operating system. It accidentally deleted the older ver (I was trying not to have this happen). I need to update and jailbreak to use the latest Pocket Informant. Which JB should I use as I thought there were problems with the latest operating system ver?

How-to: Make Your Jailbroken iPhone Look Like and iPad
At this particular point, 50-something days away from the earliest iPad deliveries, we doubt too many people are up in arms about the iPad's ability to act as a jumbo iPhone. On the other hand, if we told you you can take pretty much the entire iPad experience and distill it down to your iPhone OS device, well you'd probably care a lot more, wouldn't you? To get that extra 3D flavor to your UI, including the fetching iBooks shelf and other iPad-specific touches, you'll need a jailbroken iPhone or iPod touch, access to the Cydia app store, and the manpower to click past the break for the full instructional video. Come on, you know you want to.
[Thanks, Taimur]

Sounds like it requires 3.1+
You'll need to go with Blackrain or the new Redsnow beta
