One thing I will say about the make my life easier button in cydia is, it will only download the (then current) newest version and anything in the future. It does not "pull files" from your i* device. It basically does a man in the middle sort of approach and asks apple on your behalf for the signing files for each new release going forward.
What this means is, if you have 3.2 now but 3.2.2 is the newest out, and you now click "make my life easier" you do not get the 3.2 shsh files, you get the 3.2.2 files, totally skipping 3.2.1.
In short, even if you, just today, click make my life easier, you will not get the shsh signing files for the version you are running (3.2), or even the middle (3.2.1), but it does save for the current 3.2.2.
TinyUmbrella will only store the (then current) shsh files, just like cydia, but cydia does it automatically.
This is why it does best to click the Make My Life Easier.
As for how to do it, as of right now, unless you are a developer who has found your OWN exploit to jailbreak, you will be waiting until after 4.1 is released (for iphones). Maybe even longer for 4.2 for the iPad since its even longer till you get it.
Finally I got it , I had two hosts files and one of them had a different ip so I erase one and kept the good one wit the right info and it worked
That is wrong information.
If you click Make My Life Easier today on 3.2/3.2.1, with no prior blobs on file, it will indeed save 3.2/3.2.1 blobs since you are already running it. Apple is not involved here one bit.
Only when using TinyUmbrella does it matter if Apple stopped signing the firmware. So if you were on 3.2/3.2.1 and have not jailbroken, you cannot use TU to save the blobs. But you most certainly CAN jailbreak and then save the blobs with Cydia.

I bought the ipad last month and it shipped with the 3.2.2 firmware . What are my options to downgrade and jailbreak ?
All I can tell you is from experience here but... I have bought and returned for various reasons, multiple 3.2.1 ipads from best buy. I would jailbreak them and run cydia and wait to see if it would get which blob. Each time it would only save the newest, 3.2.2.
As of right now I sit here with an iPad which shipped with 3.2.1 from Best Buy (just like the others), a 32gig wifi model. It still has 3.2.1 but because Apple is no longer signing for 3.2.1 it only shows I have the blob for 3.2.2 on file for Cydia. To verify I tried to use TinyUmbrella to pull the 3.2.1 blob for this device and it tells me it is not able to.
All I can say is, from my experience and what I have read about and understand with Apple and Cydia's Make My Life Easier is that it only gets the newest (and future newest) versions available from apple as it can. If it could go "backward" like you say, then why does my iPad, which I clicked make my life easier the moment I brought it home, still say I can only "downgrade" to 3.2.2. In other words, I brought it home with 3.2.1 but when I got it, Apple was only now signing for 3.2.2.
i was ready to jb my ipad running on 3.2 but after reading several threads here and other sites, it seems that it doesn't matter if u have 3.2 or 3.2.1, tiny umbrella will save it as 3.2.2 as was in my case when i ran t.u.
would it be the same issue if u used autoshsh?
my concern is to restore it back to 3.2 should something go wrong after jb.
