In terms of the computing power required, the Europa Universalis engine is so remarkably lightweight that they could probably fit a decent game onto the iPad. The challenge is the interface; the games depend so much on either keyboard work or fine manipulation of pretty tightly-designed interfaces that I don't know how you'd turn them to finger-point-and-click forms.
