Honestly? The newest iPad would be perfect. It's got a larger 10 inch screen and will have support for at least 5 years. It will do exactly what you need and only for like, 330 bucks. They also have plenty of keyboard case combos to choose from.

The Amazon Fire HD tablets are a better value than an iPad and should be more than good enough for what he's doing and I'm pretty sure there's a 10".

You'll want the latest entry-level iPad since it has a larger screen than before (10.2 inches versus 9.7).  I honestly wouldn't consider anything else, since you're also looking for something easy to use, with keyboard support and good performance.

There is a 10-inch model, but it's going to be much slower and won't have keyboard support.  It's also a narrower aspect ratio, so it won't be as good for browsing.

I'm also going to recommend the iPad, its the only tablet I would even consider. Android tablets are trash to put it politely

Just buy an iPad, I was considering buying one for my mom so she can FaceTime with the other family members who have iOS devices. I know she probably won't make good use of it though. She has an ebook reader already so that's covered, and she doesn't do a lot with the web.

 

The iPad is perfect for reading books, comics, watching video, and so forth and that's stuff you can pretty much do out of the box. Add a Netflix app or whatever service they prefer and they can use that instead of the TV.
