Very good points, certainly. Personally, I read with the iPad propped up on my lap, as I'd read a hardback book. As far as the browser goes, remember that you can add any web page to the iPad's desktop, so what I do is to have an icon labelled "Amazon Bookstore" right alongside the Kindle app in my "Reading" folder on the iPad. I tap it, and it takes me directly to the Kindle Store. If someone were to set that up for a novice user, I'm sure they'd manage fine.
