How long before the iPad is jailbroken?

Last week the Apple launched its latest gizmo: The iPad. But a question we have is how long before it is jailbroken?

Last week the Apple launched its latest gizmo: The iPad.

Its features include the ability to browse the Web and listen to music, with photo, calendar, and maps applications. It will work with the iTunes store to let users discover and purchase music, movies and TV shows.

When the iPad is turned sideways, it orients the view for the user.

Like the iPhone, the iPad has a virtual keyboard. It is about half an inch thick, weighs 1.5 pounds, has a 9.7-inch display, and offers internal storage option capacities of 16GB, 32GB or 64GB. The device is powered by Apple’s custom silicon, a 1GHz A4 chip. Wireless features include 802.11n Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technology. A built-in iPod and iTunes store lets users scroll through albums to play songs as well as sample tunes, while calendar, contact and address applications let users track personal events and other data.

But a question we have is how long before the iPad is jailbroken?

An hour? A day? A week? A month? More than a month? Never - it's impenetrable...mwhahaha!?
