I was jailbreaked and updated no problems works fine, also I do not notice anything different, but one day after updating I do miss the jailbreak

I had issues with the update freezing up on iTunes. It was stuck in an endless loop and I couldn't get out of it. My plan was to bring it back to The Apple store the next morning. I was so pissed that I messed with it. Mine was fine the way it was. An error message came up every time I tried to update. Finally, I cleared the error screen and just left it connected. It finally updated after a long wait. I think I am having more issues now that I updated.

RUMORS! All rumors!

I got my iPad last week and one of the first things I did was update the OS. I was hoping that Apple put file folders in this version, since they already added it to the iPhone, but no such luck. I should have known better when I noticed that it wasn't 4.0. Looks like I'm going to have to wait a few months for that. :-(

I don't know what else was included in the update and I didn't have my iPad long enough to notice any differences after updating. But it went smoothly and I've had no problems with it.

I'm typing on it now with my keyboard dock. It's kind of like a mini-net book with a vertical screen. LOL. I kind of wish my iPad had a docking slot on the side, not just the bottom, so I could get it to work in landscape format, but oh well.

Tried to jb and iPad froze forcing me to update. Seems the exact same as 3.2 however. There is really no perceivable reason to update already IMO. You can't go back to 3.2 if you update to 3.2.1, unless you are already jail broken and have saved your SSH blobs.

Just for clarification: You don't have to be jailbroken to save your SHSH blobs.

Tell me more?

I'm no expert and am still learning, but the apps like tinyUmbrella (don't know if there are others) run on your PC/Mac/LinuxBox and just save the SHSH blobs. Cydia (after jailbreaking it is installed on your iPad) will do it from the iPad itself.

All it is doing is giving you the ability to restore to a previous version of firmware. Now, the need for being able to do that is highly unlikely unless you jailbreak your iPad because that is where people can get into trouble and create a problem where they need to restore their iPad. The most common reason I can come up with to restore to a previous version is so you can jailbreak again after something has gone horribly wrong (like upgrading to 3.2.1 with a jailbroken iPad). There is no jailbreak for 3.2.1 yet so people would have to go back to 3.2 to be able to re-jailbreak.

You can always restore your iPad to the latest version of the firmware (right now 3.2.1) through Apple.

So, the SHSH blobs aren't a jailbreaking thing necessarily, but they probably won't be needed unless you are jailbreaking.

Not sure if that helped or not.

I do apologize, that came out misworded.
