Good day.

I understand that jailbreaking my iPad may simply involve downloading the evasi0n program to my PC, plugging the iPad and clicking a button. Simple and efficient.

Now, my concern is that I am not sure about the risks of jailbreaking the device. Does a jailbroken device behave as an improved iPad with additional features or does it become a different os? For example, will I still be able to use iTunes to acess the iTunes store or backup the device? Will I be able to install apps legitimately downloaded from the App store? Thank you for your attention.
