Is it just me, or is this the most pointless review ever written...

They seem a little "manufactured".


Anyone think this would be any good for non-internet connected 70 yr old parents with a phobia of anything with buttons on it? Or too complicated/too crap?

This seems good to me if you can pop the SIM out and use it in a different dongle? 30 hours Internet per month for £139 works out at £11.60 / month or about 40p an hour for Internet on the move over the course of the year. Or you can out the netbook on eBay and reduce your costs even more.

Am No..
He was probably trying to point out all the previous reviews looked "staged" to boost sales!
If he had said that outright of course they would have deleted his review!

It doesn't support flash and will be generally sluggish so your web experience is going to be pretty poor. I'd avoid it.
