Thanks. I saw that they had wi-fi, but the old man doesn't keep a PC or router in the house. Hence my inquiry about service plans, airtime etc.

That HDX with the help system looks pretty sweet.

He can get a service plan on most tablets through a cell phone provider such as T-Mobile. The main problem with that is that it's going to have a data cap on it most likely. If he's doing a lot of browsing and streaming on his tablet as his sole device, he's going to cap out pretty quickly and costs will run up.

Probably better off financially getting internet at his house with wireless.

Look into the iPads with cellular then. Their data packages are month to month and I think I saw that the newest iPads may let you swap from one carrier to another. Either way, you'll want to make sure that there's decent service at his house before you commit to one carrier over another.
