Some nerds (not Anthony Hecht) have already jailbroken their iPads. If you are a nerd*, you can watch this video, in which some anonymous nerd logs into his iPad and makes a map disappear.

The iPad has only been on sale for less than three days, and already hackers have jailbroken it to get around Apple’s restrictions.

MuscleNerd, a member of the iPhone Dev Team committed to hacking the iPhone OS, has jailbroken the iPad after just a day of tinkering. The hack gave him root access to the iPad and allowed him to install non-approved applications and to run apps simultaneously. It uses the same exploit employed to jailbreak the current OS 3.1.3 iPhone.

*Video extremely uninformative to non-nerds.
