PDF are ideal on a tablet and a pinch zoom does wonders.

I've taken a few magazine subscriptions on Zinio and they've become my second biggest use on the tablet. I've heard that they are a special enhanced PDF. You just can't imagine what it is to zoom on the details in a National Geographic photograph! Beats paper anytime...

Oh, although Apple castrated the iPad, third party apps render wireless communication feasible. Dropbox, StreamToMe, Goodreader and Air Sharing do wonders to circumvent the imposed drawbacks.
If I want to listen to music or watch a movie, I don't even have to download them. As long as the PC is on or that I have to leave the network... But then there's Dropbox.

If only it could be used WITHOUT the friggin' PC!

Someday maybe?
BTW There's a rumor that gen two will be 7 inch instead of 10.
