Got a long rep comment for this post from someone looking for advice on the topic, so I thought it was time for an update.
A couple of years ago, my mother-in-law switched to an iPad, a Bluetooth keyboard, cable modem service and wifi. I wouldn't say she loves this setup, but she copes with it. She uses it for email and light surfing - probably 1% of its capability. The good thing is, it's a setup that is hard to break.
