My 84 year old mom hates touch screens, so you might want to check with yours first. She found the Jetbook lite very very intuitive to use, and she is not at all computer literate! And she loved the screen. The only problem with it was the weight. She has severe arthritis in her hands, and the JL is heavy for her.
I ended up getting her the Astak Pocket Pro. She loves it. Since she is 4 hours away I bought two SD cards, and we just mail them back and forth for me to load up for her. Unfortunately, I don't think you can get the PP any more, so I really don't know what brand to recommend. Though my sister has arthritis also, and she has to Pocketbook 360 and loves it. It is also very light weight and easy to use. That might be an option.
It's good of you to help your mom, I hope she loves her reader as much as my mom does.
