Question for anyone thats Jailbroken there ipad 1st gen

[MuiMui89]

Hi all

So basically I've run a search on google & different websites but can't find the answers to my questions.

I have an ipad 1st gen wifi + 3G I'm about to pass it over to another family member as il be getting the new ipad.
I want to jailbreak ipad 1 first, so my questions are.

> once it's Jailbroken can you still plug it into iTunes?
> will it still be able to be used to txt message even though iMessage is a apple thing?
> will iCloud be void & not working?
> how do I back up all photos & contacts that are on the ipad now?
> do I lose all apps I paid for when ipad wasn't Jailbroken?
> why is it worth jail breaking compared to how the device is now?


Any answers would be much appreciated

Thanks in advance

once it's Jailbroken can you still plug it into iTunes? Yes

will it still be able to be used to txt message even though iMessage is a apple thing? Yep

will iCloud be void & not working? No iCloud should work

how do I back up all photos & contacts that are on the ipad now? I'm pretty sure you just back it up

do I lose all apps I paid for when ipad wasn't Jailbroken? Only if you dont back it up

why is it worth jail breaking compared to how the device is now? Well i cant really answer this one
