Thanks for the offer chokra, but I'll pass. I don't think it will work as well for my intended uses.

ddtavian, I noticed you bought and iPad for your son. That's also what my son wants. Based on the useability, which would you consider to be more intuitive / easy to use for young teens? It's nice to see that most of the apps aren't very expensive. I've gotten tired over the years of $10 - $20+ computer games for my son, and his latest unfulfilled wishlist included several subscription games at more than $6 / month. So chances are pretty good that he'd be able to talk me into a game with a one time fee of under $5.

I'm keeping my eyes open and reading as much as I can about the new contenders to the market.
