Xmas Redux 2 -- Mom Gets an iPad -- The Ultimate Grandma Test

Here is Xmas redux #2.

My mother has never been online ... ever! She lives in Minneapolis -- her grand-kids (my kids) live in San Diego. So, she rarely sees them.

Hence her new Xmas gift -- the iPad! Primary goal? FaceTime with the kids. One-touch video calling -- anytime. That's the promise. But, will that promise be realized? That's debatable. We shall see. We practiced -- a lot. Time will tell here. She seemed intrigued, but certainly wasn't enthralled ... yet. And, will it be as simple and intuitive as all of us -- who have been online for so many years -- believe it is?

This is the ultimate grandmother ease-of-use test!
