The 360 might be too small (It is the exact size of a CD jewel case), but it has an optional reader app that lets you switch pages by moving the reader itself instead of pressing a button. It might suit her needs in landscape mode.
The 302 has a touch screen and a motion sensor with a 6 in screen, plus large paging buttons on both sides. It might give you the best of the two other models but it is a bit on the pricey side by current standards and, for the same price, they are going to be offering a fairly light 9in model starting around september, the PB901.
There are threads on all four models over at the Pocketbook forum.
PocketBook 302 is quite heavy comparing to other PocketBook models and I wouldn't recommend it since speakingtohe is looking for a light weighted reader for his mother.
PocketBook 301+ is a good choice if consider 6" screen reader.
I personally would go with a light weighted large screen reader. Once PocketBook 901 is available for sale it would be a great pick.
