You have to connect your iPad to a computer with iTunes installed on it (make sure it is the most recent version iTunes 11) and then when you connect your iPad, you'll see it listed as connected devices, when you click on it's details, you'll see an update button. Click on that, follow the instructions and it will update for you....After iOS 5, you'll be able to update through the iPad itself.
