I have the "Paper" (yes - ironic) for the iPad. With the extras it is great.

If you have used a Wacom, you will be disappointed with a touch scrren painting app. It is ok for rough loose drawings, but hard to put a stroke where you want it. Wacom touch screen is 2000usd plus. Wacom tablet is about 300usd. An app for your tablet is about 3usd. I use Sketchbook Pro on an Asus transformer tablet with a brush stylus. For detail work i use a 18 x 24 Wacom table, not touch screen and no longer available.

she just wants something simple (kinda like me!) not professional grade.

Sketchbook Pro app for either ipad or driod tablets.
Sensu brush stylus.
Using your fingers to paint sorta works too.
It is alot of fun.

Get the Ipad, then you can also load it with the Word Magic English/Spanish Dictionary. Awesome app, it's like having a full sized dictionary and 501 Spanish verbs with you all the time.

I have a wacom that I use on my computer and I have to say that the ipad apps are rather, juvenile, now that is not a bad thing, as I have be described in the same terms.

However, it is great to monkey around with and I have made some interesting things, but there is not an inexpensive pen system that gives the same kind of control as the Wacom.
