Is there any way I can update my iPad to ios5 without using iTunes?

My home PC crashed, and I haven't gotten a new one yet, and it's my understanding that if I can upgrade to ios5, I can use the Cloud instead.  Also, what about all of my music in iTunes that is stores on my external hard drive?
Thanks.

Ok, one more, and I promise I'll be done ....
It looks like what I'm going to have to do is get a new laptop/pc - I'm fine with that. 
However, presuming I get a new PC, install iTunes, all of my current stuff on my iPad and iPhone is backed up, I install the new os, and everything is good .... then I plug in my external hard drive with all of my music.  Some of the iTunes music and movies on my external drive were purchased years ago with a now defunct Apple account and Yahoo email address.  How can I access these items? I remember getting an error last time I tried to sync, and these items wouldn't sync.
Thanks again!  This discussion group has given me more information in 10 minutes than 2 days searching the net.
