Is tiny umbrella the best way to preserve my 5.0 baseband?

There is absolutely no reason to preserve the iPad baseband. Why would you?

I was just assuming it was similar to the iPhone jb, I new to ipad. Jb

OK. Well, you don't have to preserve the baseband of the 3G iPad since it does not need to be carrier unlocked with ultrasn0w, and there has only been one unlockable iPad baseband on the iPad1 3G which was 06.15.00, which is likely long gone from everyones devices now.

I would assume they are working on a iPhone 4s/iPad 2 on 5.0 unlock as well other than the tmobile sim switch unlock unless that will work on the iPad also

Your iPad should not be locked to any carrier if you are in the USA????? Only a tiny percentage of iPads have a locked baseband. The vast majority are sold factory unlocked by Apple. (completely opposite to how phones are sold)

Well in the us when u buy one it's either for AT&T or Verizon, you have to tell them which one you want. Maybe just because of which carriers sim is in it?????

I take that back, I also just called the local apple store to me. They said they are unlocked and I can use it in other countries by just popping in a sim like I did with my jb unlocked iPhone 4(have a 4s now) and it will work

You can just pop in a different sim.

What you are being asked is whether you want a GSM version or a CDMA version. Nothing to do with it being locked to a carrier, although technically the only CDMA carrier in the US that supports the IPad is Verizon. But with GSM you can use any SIM, not just AT&T.
