First Apple product ever in my household.
First computer product that I ever had to READ instructions on how to perform certain tasks.
However, once done and movies, books, photos loaded, my 95 year old mother uses it in her nursing home to watch her favorite movies and view pictures of her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren AND read her King James version of the Bible.
This is a lady who, at times, has made me wonder how in the world she ever learned to operate a light switch.
But she proudly proclaimed that she finished watching "The Sound of Music" and listened to the overture of "Oklahoma" all on her own. (Before she fell asleep) Because there was no one else around who knew how to operate her iPad.
It sounds like the iPad is working well for your mother. I do think it is an amazing device. It appeals to a wide variety of people--from computer geeks to people who know nothing about computers.

That's very interesting. I think many people are finding the iPad to be very useful.
