Hi everyone! We are in Australia, Victoria, near Wilson's Promontory.

Mum received an iPad from us, daughters, for Christmas and we hope it will become the brilliant little unit allowing her first foray into the world of typing, email and the web.
I am not sure Mum will ever contribute to technical advice however she may become a confident and happy user through the experience of being connected to a supportive forum as this one seems to be.
I will probably be the most common participant as I help mum find her way around the iPad. I look forward to the trip.
