Apple iPad and Apple iPad Mini
Much like my experience with my Apple iPhones, I find that the iPads work simply, work well, and are robust computing devices that allow you to accomplish a lot with a device much smaller than a PC or laptop.I think the iPad is an excellent choice for those people who neither want, nor need, a complete PC. In some cases, a Windows or Macintosh PC is more complexity than the user needs, especially if they are doing the typical tasks of email, reading and web browsing.
