Speakers/jack and buttons would be nice but not deal breakers. And then it'd be nice if it was either waterproof or had a flush screen. I've spilled water many times on my kindle and it always goes for the groove. I'm also interested in having a stylus but I'm not sure I'd use it. The max I'm willing to spend is ~200 dollars.
Apart from the waterproofing, your iPad meets and exceeds all of your requirements, doesn't it? It's your best PDF-reading and annotating option by far. Enable Night Shift, control your brightness and colour settings in your chosen reading app, and you're away.
