Good day to all.I'm thinking of buying an ipad for my granddaughters birthday at the end of this month,her mother & father have an ipad and she uses a lot of that.So I thought one of here own would be better allround.
Now to the question Ipad or something similar As you know there are various ones avaiable but would like some advice on the buying side has any one got an ipad would they reccomend it or some other make?
Thanks in advance.
If your granddaughter uses her parent's ipads and likes it so much that she wants only an ipad for her then you can buy an ipad for her.
If she is not particular about ipad and only interested in having a good tablet, then you can get her an android based tablet. The market is full of very good models with good prices.
You can find out your grand daughter's choice and buy accordingly.

Kids are all about image. They want an iwhatever because Suzie and Johnny both have them. Getting the ipad is the safe choice as I don't believe kids care to research options much they just run with the pack. That being said the ipad from what I hear it is a very good product even if crazy expensive.
