+1 on the iPad 3. Forget the built-in PDF reader, though. Definitely get GoodReader. It's $5 but well worth it for reference material.

Not strictly true. My technical PDFs and manuals clock in at 80MB a piece (lots of images and diagrams) so 1,000 of those would be ~80GB. Scanned documents (300dpi, unoptimized) clock in at ~100-300MB so it'll hold even less of those. That said, 16GB is still plenty of storage and can hold a sizable amount of material.
