I have had my iPad jail broken for a while now, and on the whole it's been a good experience, although not found that much in there for my iPad, I have experienced the issue with iBooks crashing which has been frustrating.
I have seen the reviews regarding the phone it pad app and have been waiting with huge anticipation for it to be available, so as soon as the news hit engadget that it was available, I went straight to Cydia and purchased it.
It's $20, so not the cheapest jailbreak app you will ever buy, but I have to say so far it's well worth it. Until I purchased the app I was using an O2 iPad sim in my iPad, and paying as I go for my data, however as soon as the app was purchased and registered my mobile broadband sim stopped working. I realised that the instant the app started, the O2 network recognised my iPad as an iPhone, and changed the apn to the pay and go phone apn.
I decided to stay with pay and go, I bought a text & web micro sim pack from work, and plumbed it straight in with a £10 top up, I immediately received the welcome texts from O2, but I didn't get the allowances activated until I put the sim into a regular phone. Once active I put the micro sim back into the iPad and the text and phone apps work flawlessly.
I have to say that I am mightily impressed with it all, it is immensely useful to be able to send texts from the iPad, I probably won't use it for many calls if any, but I never planned too!
To sum up, this is probably the best jailbreak app I have, and adds what surmounts to me as the missing feature from my iPad. If you feel like you need it too then head over to Cydia and pick it up.
