I'm looking to get an Ipad for my mother-in-law who has recently lost her husband.
I'm hoping she will use it to Skype her children who alas like many Irish families are scattered around the globe.
I think it will have to be an original Air or newer.
I don't know how much she will use it so I suppose I'm looking for one at a good price.

I'm just a iDevice sort of guy.pink wrote:why ipad??? argos have sale on lenovo tab3 7" €73.99 (android) just good enough for skype and web.
A Daewoo Matiz would get me into work fine but yet I buy a VW Golf.
Anyway, seems Pink Fish has sorted this for me.
