I just got my dad an iPad 2, 32GB wifi/3G. It's a great companion tab for my parents iPhone and he loves it. I've been using it and really like the screen size, smooth UI and all the great apps. It synced easily with his iPhone.

He was using Motorola Bluetoot speakers for Pandora that were $100. The speakers on the iPad are way better! I was impressed. He liked that all his Pandora stations showed up when he downloaded Pandora onto the Pad.

Native email is a plus for this thing. My parents PC is over 10 years old and super slow. Their iPhones are great but the screen is tiny for 60 year olds. They do al their emailing on the iPad now. Good size font.

My mom reads a lot and is excited to use the includwed reader, I forget the name of it. It has plenty of options to adjust font size and background color as well as bookmark. Seemed as good as Kindle app I had on my Android.

Super thin and light too.

I'd recommend one for any iPhone user.

LOL!!! @ "bluetoot"
I would suggest Kindle over iBooks only because I like knowing I can switch devices and still have my books. Whispersync works great across devices as well
