Forums - Mobile Discussion - I need a tablet for my mom

As the title says, my mother wants a tablet and asked me what she should get. I don't own a tablet as of yet and haven't really payed much attention to them so I don't know much about them. Her use of it would be very basic, web browsing mostly with maybe some picture and music usage. She is 74 yrs. old and cheap. First thing that comes to mind is the Kindle but I dunno. What would you guys get and why? Thanks.



I LOVE paying for Xbox Live! I also love that my love for it pisses off so many people.

Kindle = Price wise

iPad = If she wants it as a fad item.

get her a kindle fire. does the basics well at a cheap price, reliable brand/company.

Bet with Turkish 1 month sig control: He wins if Playstation All Stars: BR sells more than 5m, I win if it doesn't. I won.

Bet with Conegamer for 1 month sig control: He wins if Orbis/Durango have 3GB of RAM or less, I win if both have more than 3GB. I won.

Bet with man-bear-pig for 1 month avatar control: He wins if Vita sells less than 6.5M in 2013, I win if it sells more.

Bet with MARCUSDJACKSON for 1 month sig control: I win if there is an official price cut for Vita before E3 2013. He wins if there is a price cut at E3. If there is no pricecut until after E3 we both lose.

This should get interesting.
I say ipad as it has by far the best apps BUT cheaper would be the Kimdle Fire and for her would probably be the best choice :)

well my advice is that if she has a smartphone get her a tablet with the same OS. sorry i couldnt help more

Kindle Fire is probably the way to go. The original should go for around 150 and it will do everything she needs.

Don't go cheap, get a Ipad. Well worth it.



A Book to read: Gardens of the Moon (Epic Fantasy)   

A Game to Play: Fallout 2

A Film/Show to watch: Deadwood 

A Song to hear: Nutshell by Alice in Chains

Kindle Fire would be the good/cheap choice.

The iPad would be the great/somewhat expensive choice.
I have an iPad and I really enjoy it.
