Before I start I would like to point out that iOS 5 is still in beta. Beta 1 and Beta 2 have been released, and both can be hacked the same way. Instructions and download are bellow. I do not, in any way take any fault if you screw up following this tutorial. This tutorial is for demonstration purposes only. Neither do I and / or NextGenUpdate host the downloads; they are hosted in a server not owned by neither.
I would suggest you using iOS only for the iPhone and iPod as the iPad version still has various bugs including (non-working Safari, YouTube, and etc.). I will also only go over the iPhone and iPod version of the tut in here. If you would like the iPad version quote me, and I might add it here.

2- Once it shows the iDevice options, go to where it says 'Restore' and shift+click it.
3- A select file dialog should show up. Pick iOS 5 from the folder you downloaded it to.
4- Wait until it restores and updated your iDevice.
5- Now once your device starts go trough the easy set-up they have you do, and in the very end where it will check for your IDID it should give you an error.
6- Open up RedSn0w and go trough the whole jailbreak process with iOS 5. (This is standard Jailbreak skills. If you do not know how to quote me.)
7- After you are done jailbreaking go back to your iDevice.
Follow the instructions bellow now for your iDevice option.

I agree with you this is for developers. The beta is for report problems in the iOS if the kid found a problem he going to be stuck in the problem and think he's a 1337 h4X0rz.

Are you ****ing kidding me... Why do you have to know if it works now? WAIT untill it gets updated when iOS 5.0 is released. Alost everything in 5b3 is broken. Also, using beta jailbreaks if you are a user is very stupid.

The only ones being rubbish here are the kids such as your self. I though this was a hacking board, not a 'who can get the most attention in a thread' board. The iOS 5 beta version was meant not only for bug finding, but also for app developing; Jailbreak developers will find this useful as they will be able to test their app on iOS 5 with out paying $99 a year.
And just to let you know, there are much more 'L33T's' in this forum than your sorry ass.

Because then he can have an update ready when iOS 5 is released. Common sense, I see you do not have it.

Just wait for Fall, really. iOS 5 is very buggy and sluggish.
Actually the beta's for the iPhone and iPod are pretty stable as of right now. The iPad in the other hand is full of bugs.
