Maybe a full keyboard phone if they even still make them.
My mother-in-law and father-in-law just got and iphone, then an ipad, and then another ipad, and now just another.
They're both 70-something.
An iphone is going to be so easy to teach him how to share text and pictures, and dumbphones aren't. My brother won't even use text on his dumbphone, it takes too long and to him, it's not even worth messing with.
I guess it all depends how much pics and data are worth to you guys, and how much it's gonna cost. I think it's gonna be worth WAY more than the price, my friend.
I hope you can swing it.  |
I hear ya Scott. I am taking Mark up on the offer of the Iphone 4. It's a good place to start. I really don't think the pictures and picture messages will be something he will use but I hope I am wrong. This is a guy who doesn't use a computer at all. Matter of fact my Mom bought a very nice new computer about 8 month's before she died and after a while he gave it to me bacause mine was a lot older than hers. But it would be cool if I can teach him to text and send photos since it looks like he will be gone a fair amount of time. Mark, thanks a ton and if he becomes this texting photo sending data hogging technophobe I will blame it on you.
