As for me  -- ipad is best of the best.
    2-3 heads ahead.

All this hardware "bonuses" cost nothing actually.
I never was need insert flash into iPad :) ... Why ?
Well, may be only if person have in home only ipad?
But ipad is not replacement to macbook, it is one more tool, which you
should have in home: TV, router, desktop, macbook, ipad, iphone :-)
Each device have own target.

And only yesterday I have read one more article
Which describes how bad bad bad are sales of android tablets ...
They really cannot hump to level even of iPad1 technically.

IMO, if you love your father  -- buy for him at least iPad 1,
    At least used ...  Will be much more pleasure and use for person.
    Now iPad 1 can be found near to 200-300 in USA, right?
  
Btw, I also going present iPad to parents,
First of all because it allow easy and nice zoom text to read.
