Here's a copy of the printed materials we handed out during the course.

iPad apps especially for Seniors??

I wondered if there are any iPad apps that would be especially useful for people over 55, so i searched the web for  "best apps for ipad for seniors". Sure enough, there are many many lists: "16 helpful apps for seniors", "27 bet iPad and iPhone apps for senior citizens".

But are any of them useful.. and how many of these apps are FREE..?

Well, some of them are designed to help people by improving things like:

• Visual accessibility: Silver Surf is a web browser with "large navigation buttons, dynamic text zoom, high contrast viewing".
• Your brain fitness: Lumosity is an app for keeping your brain fit and healthy. 

Refurbished iPads

Suppose you want to buy an iPad, but you don't want to pay a fortune for the latest and greatest.. what can you do?

I've done a basic search for "Refurbished iPad in Melbourne", and found that

• Apple themselves have specials on their website as low as $309 for an old model (which is still a lot of money, but less than $700, right?)
• Also, not sure who these people are, but they explain "Refurbished" quite well - "MacpricesAustralia".

Other than that, it could be worth asking at your local Apple Store, or Reseller (eg JB hifi, harvey norman).
