You only option right now is a tethered jailbreak. You will need a computer to reboot the iPad every time it is turned off. Unthered should be here shortly - we think. It's an easy process and well worth it in my mind. Just really depends if you I'll have access to a computer if you need to reboot your iPad. Any questions - let us know.

Alright Thanks Spink, but what if I get the tethered jailbreak and I don't connect it when i turn it off, will everything reset? and isn't redsn0w a beta?

With tethered you can just leave your iPad on all the time - just leave it in sleep mode and charge it before it hits zero battery. You can turn it off or reboot at any time and it does not need to be connected to a computer. When you want to turn it on connect it to your computer and follow the process that you would to jailbreak it expect you hit reboot tethered and it will reboot the iPad in jailbreak mode. You will not lose anything. Redsn0w. Untethered is in beta now. Redsn0w tethered is working great - obviously sometimes people have problems with it. General it is the user doing something wrong and not the jailbreak. If you need any help let me know.
