I would go with the iPad Air instead of the mini sense she is looking for
something to replace an aging computer. The iPad Air in a QWERTY keyboard
case is around the size of a Windows Netbook or a screen size that's roughly
10 by 5 inches. Before 50 people write in to give me the exact dimensions I
said approximately <grin> I too wanted a replacement for a computer. In my
case, it was to replace an XP laptop. The Air is solid state and has no
moving parts like the iPhone etc. With the QWERTY case, it actually closes
like a laptop as well and, when you don't need the keyboard, it's very easy
to remove the iPad from the case. I should say too that the QWERTY keyboard
is powered by a rechargeable battery. It takes 3 hours to fully recharge a
dead keyboard and a charge lasts me roughly 2 weeks to a month depending on
how often I reply to messages.

Hello Teresa, I would recommend you get a iPad mini if that suits your
needs. It is a good device. I also have a iPad mini and are you for the
following gate some music, texting, and so much more. Comes very useful for
my needs.

Hi, all,
I have a computer that needs a hard-drive replacement, at the very least,
and possibly has a failed logic board. I'm seriously considering replacing
it with an iPad. Price is only somewhat an issue, since there seems to be
only about $100 US difference between a new model I would want and the
iPad. Mainly, I don't want the hassle of replacing moving parts and
getting dust and cat-hair and such snarled up in it. I'm also extremely
comfortable with iOS and use my iPod 5th gen constantly. I intend to use
the iPad with a keyboard.
So has anyone else taken this sort of step? Am I out of my mind, or do you
think this is doable?
I am a casual user. I read books, browse the web, play videos and music
and games, and occasionally write for informal publications.
What do you guys think?
Teresa
