Unfortunately, there is no official way to downgrade iOS devices.
Try to look up for “unofficial” methods (involving jailbraking) to downgrade your device to a previous iOS version: http://www.google.com/search?q=downgrade+ios+5.1+to+5.0.1
For the future: you need to be a very careful with Mac OS X and iOS upgrades, if you use older Mac and/or iOS devices. Apple maintains very small backward compatibility for their software, thus, it quite easy to get in situation, when you can’t continue your work without hardware upgrade. 🙁
