Hi.

Regarding the cydia app "No Update":
Is no Update only blocking updates via General->Software Update
or is it prohibiting a reset and reinstall (same version - not an update) from iTunes too?

I could be mistaken, but I believe it's solely for the Over The Air (OTA) updates that come with iOS 5.x+

In iTunes, you just have to be vigilant to say "no, don't want the update." But - if you do get the new update pop-up, there is a small box you can check in it to tell iTunes not to pop-up and tell you about updates. It'll still show on the main screen that your iPad is not upgraded, but you'd have to physically move your mouse over there and click it. And, if anyone deliberately does that, there's no hope for them!

Hope that clarifies.
