I agree. I've found my iPad (64GB 4th gen) to be superior to other tablets/readers for reading PDF documents.

The added benefit, with chess in particular, is the iPad's ability to be used as a chess board to record moves. I don't have the link handy, but I remember reading about special chess pieces that can be used with the iPad to record games.

Of course there is also a wide range and selection of chess software... playing chess against AI or others (locally or internet), electronic chess clock, etc.
