They're inevitably one of the most popular gifts at any time of the year.
Of course, they are not without drawbacks.

Especially, if that person is not the most technically advanced friend or family member you may have.
I know, I've been there before, and given digital cameras to older folks that never quite seem to catch on to them.
My mother in law would be a perfect example.

As they get easier and easier to operate, it's also true, that Grandma and Grandpa will have a much easier time adjusting to the "new" technology.
