At what age do you all think the ipad is suitable for?
I recently bought one and let my 12 year old nephew use it over the weekend. First thing he wanted to do was download games. He now wants one badly which got me thinking as he'll just see it as a toy or another gaming platform, which is a shame as it's so much more. Especially as he has a dedicated games console!
I dont see it as a toy but more as a semi-serious productive device.
So what are your thoughts, is it fine to look at the ipad as an expensive hand held? (No, there's no way I'm buying him one!!!)
