I'm with LE, knowing what your getting into is 3/4's of the battle. If your not up for it, then go for one of the big name brands with a dedicated store.

Recently I bought a pair of Jetbooks for my dad, and my wifes dad.
Ages 75 and 85, both computer illerate, both with lots of time on their hands, both having issues reading regular print books. (Both farmers, lots of years staring into the sun)

Now I did take the precaution of having a wide variety of books preloaded for them.

But both took to the Jetbook like a duck takes to water.

So running the Jetbook itself is truly not that hard.
You do however have to educate yourself as to exactly what your expecting that book to do. And exactly how to maximize your chances of it being able to do what you want.
