Hi all,
I would like to know, is there any way I can convert PDF files (over 30MB, so "ePub2Go" is out) to ePub file so I can drop it off in iTunes and then read it on my iPad 2?
I just want to be able to read PDF formated book on iPad 2... Apple, why are you so difficult?

For iBooks and it's free. If you install it and are unable to find the app, restart your iPad and then it will show up. I had this problem and after doing some searches in google it seems to be a common problem but works great after that.
Here is the tutorial for How to Convert PDF to Epub for iPad (http://www.softwarebbs.com/wiki/How_to_convert_PDF_to_ePub).
Simply a click the PDF file has been converted to Epub. Then you can sync the Epub files to your iDevice via itunes.
Hope it can do you a favor.

As mentioned, iBooks can handle PDFs. Drag and drop the desired PDFs into iTunes and then sync with your iPad.
Some people have reported iBooks crashing shortly after opening large PDFs with iBooks. It was suggested that a reset of the iDevice to resolve that issue.
Personally, I haven't any large PDFs so I can't vouch for the resolution method above.
