I read somewhere that you can downgrade the iPad 2 down to 4.3.5 or lower. But, I'm wondering, can you upgrade back up to 5.0.1 so I can jailbreak with absinthe?

If you don't have saved shsh blobs for iOS 5.0.1, you can't go to that version, if you update to 5.1, which that's the only version you can update to, there's no way to restore to 5.0.1
If you don't even know what shsh blobs are, don't even consider any version update but 5.1, sorry.
And as you know, there's no jailbreak for 5.1 currently. So 5.1 is a dead end for 5.0.1
Swiped with HTC Trace on Desire S using Primo S 3.3 with HTC Sense 4A
If you don't see A, that means It's probably May and ICS update is published and I'm screaming out loud! lol

Unfortunately, you cannot restore 5.0.1 on iPad2 even if you HAVE shsh blobs. It is impossible as things stand. Only the iPad1 can be restored to 5.0.1 with SHSH Blobs today.
Hope that clarifies.

Please help me to downgrade my ipad2 3G gsm 5.1 to 4.3.3 I have try through many method but problem is fixed error and I can not solve it yet Big thanks in advance
Unfortunately, now that your iPad2 is on iOS 5.1, there is no downgrading you can do. The iPad2 has to remain on 5.1. Sorry.

If he has 4.3.3 blobs, TinyCFW can be used
We have a tutorial for that
