My MIL is about to turn 90. She has two iPads and would fight you to keep them. For her it is ideal, as it operates mostly like her iPhone. She is no wiz with it, but it is intuitive, and she can order from Amazon, stream movies, do email, and send photos. She has pretty much stopped using her computer. She does have one advantage is her son, has two boys and they all use iPhones. Plus my wife would put up a major fight to keep her iPad and she is pretty savvy with her iPad and helps her mom when she has questions.

The one thing my MIL loves the most is reading books on her iPad. Our metro library has an app and residents can log in, and download books for free. She spends many hours per day reading and it cost nothing but the electricity to charge up the iPad. She is even to the point she does not like a real book, as the page turning is not just a tap on the screen to change pages and you have to use a book mark when you put it down.

And get the Apple cover with keyboard with it. It is the best screen cover and well designed keyboard.
