The current high-profile gear, iPad was delivered to me. I ordered it as my present for Father's Day last week. I expected that it would take more than a month to get it, thinking about its popularity, and I was a little surprised at how soon it came. I didn't need to wait for the day, the third Sunday in June, and took it to my parents's house at once. My father, who is 78 years old, knew only the name of it, because of Apple's systematic buildup, but he didn't think he'd be able to use it. I set up the wireless local area network and the iPad. It started to work without any problem.
The usability was wonderful. It must be designed for people of all generations. My father often uses his cellular phone to send e-mails, but the letters are too small for him. So, he was pleased to understand the method of magnifying letters on the screen. It was really easy. Moreover he can use it wherever in his house and garden.
He only just learned how to use e-mails and browse the internet. The iPad will be helpful for preventing dementia. I hope that the iPad will help him to keep his quality of life.
