I haven't looked at the Pro, but I've got an iPad Air with Road & Track, Excellence, Octane & National Geographic, and it would be nice to have a bigger screen or have the magazines use much smaller margins. I suspect a Pro would be very nice for reading magazines at least size-wise. Size or weight may tip the balance the other direction for extended use.

Years ago, I had an original ipad. The weight kind of sucked. It was 1.5#. I now have an ipad air which is 1.034# (469g), and the weight is much better. the iPad Air 2 is 437g. The iPad Pro is 1.57#. The extra 3" of space would be nice at times. It wouldn't be an issue when using a stand of course. I suspect most of the time, you'd be using a stand. I'm not sure if the keyboard comes with the Pro or is an option. I have a logitech keyboard with my iPad Air, and it is great and acts as a stand for the iPad.

Motorsport is one of my favorite mags, BTW. I used to subscribe and have a bunch of back issues.
