If you're interested in building it into an iOS app, let me know and maybe I can help. I built a HN iPhone app. http://michaelgrinich.com/hackernews

This is on pages 28-29 of this issue.
The iApp would be nice because you wouldn't have to download them and sync manually. But in the mean time, you can get the PDFs and sync them to iBooks, or go right to the PDF in your iOS browser and open them in iBooks. It looks fantastic on the iPad.
How do you open the PDF in ibooks from safari?
In iOS4, just browse to it. A button will pop up that says "Open in iBooks" assuming iBooks 1.1 is installed.
After you did this on an iPhone or iPod touch, did it then sync over to your iPad? Obviously, you can't do this on an iPad directly.
Nope sadly. It's only for that session.
Just drop the PDFs in Dropbox and then send them to iBooks from there.
Excellent points. Point #1 would be especially interesting.
Also: It'd be great if the print version was available in other countries (such as Australia).
I agree with every single point in this comment. pclark: you read my mind.
* a few recurring columns (eg: get ceo of startup to write half a page about "day in life of startup" each month for 3 months
* spotlight on a "review my startup" submission to HN each month.

* oh, most importantly, links to the most recent "who is hiring/who is looking for a job"
also, iPad/iPhone app.
