Think of it this way, the Ipad is a computer for those who are computer illiterate. If I were to teach my Grandma to use a computer, this is what I'd give her. Easy to understand interface, no mouse or keyboard simply touch what you want on the screen.
Do your grandmother a favor and get her an Android tablet instead. Trust us.
All the advantages you've just described and more, such as not having to pay for browser games.
