My mom kept saying how she wanted a smart phone because she's always
only ever used tracfones. Then I told her how much I pay a month for
mine and she changed her mind. She's mentioned before that she'd like to
have an iPad, too, but I can't imagine what she'd do with it. She uses
her laptop in the kitchen which is the only place she'd even use a
computer at all. I think she just hears about someone else having one
and wants one too.
