Official IOS6 Jailbreak Status Thread

I'm running an iPad 3 on IOS 5.1.1 with the jailbreak. If anyone knows the answers to these, it would sure help me out. Do I need to update my IOS to a normal 6.1 version before applying this new jailbreak? If so, what happens to all of my Cydia apps during that process? Will they still be on my iPad 3 or will I have to reinstall? Is there an easy way to save a list of what I have installed from Cydia if I need to reinstall? Thanks in advance.

Yes, you will need to update to the new IOS. Get rid of old JB and back to stock form. I'm almost positive you'll have to re-download the cydia apps. The ones you paid for will be available for free once you re-install cydia / new JB
 
Lol I'm going to wait a little for apps and tweaks to catch up. Hopefully I can hold out. Is there a site that lets you know when tweaks are updated?

You didn't need the "almost." :) When you re-jailbreak, you will have to re-download the Cydia apps. But - its like the App Store. Once you've paid for a tweak, it's yours and it's easy to re-download.

How does PKGBackup work after new JB?

To be honest - I don't really know. I never use a tweak such as PKGBackup for backup purposes when I am going from one major iOS to another (i.e. iOS 5.1.1 to 6.1). There is a high probability that tweaks i've been using on the older iOS are fully compatible with the newer. So, I just put my Cydia tweaks on by onsies at twosies after a new jail break - that way I can ensure everything works fine before I go on to the next.

I only use PKGBackup if I am re-restoring the same iOS or restoring after an incremental upgrade (such as iOS 5.0.1 to iOS 5.1.1, for example).

So, there's that. :)
