Apple Retail Store Display iPads Can Be Hacked With Few Gestures
Apple has given their retail stores a makeover to celebrate the 10th anniversary of their retail stores with interactive iPads replacing paper signs next to products.
Seth Weintraub of 9to5Mac has just reported that an Apple Store Manager has revealed that it’s possible to turn these display iPads into normal iPads with few gestures.

Now I can hack all the iPads in the Apple store!

Why? Bitches

No need for hacking if you can't take it.

Why hack these devices when you have the iPad there itself to play with.

fas your right, hacking ipad is quite usless lol. useless to hack it when u can't take it.

The video shows no dock cable connected yet the status bar shows power cable connected. Interesting.

Yes you are right. The store iPad 2s aren't connected with a Dock connector, the cabling is behind the iPad. They are obviously modified to a certain extent. Also, the fact that the home button doesn't work even after the gestures...I would think thats a hardware level lock of sorts.

Wouldn't it be more exciting if some random dude comes in and jailbreak the iPad 2 in the store and everyone knows there is no jailbreak out yet for this portable device

The iPads are jail broken but untethered. The app used to run the display is available on Cydia for 1.99$

Maybe iPads don't really need power to work. It is all in our minds. Free your mind.
