I actually think this is a good idea for everyone, not just old-people, and I'm curious as to why it's being marketed this way. My parents and siblings have all had issues with this.

In fact, the worry I have is that they will pigeon-hole themselves into being a product for old people. When they go to expand to other markets (which according to their demo day pitch they will be), they may run into brand issues. No one, not kids, 20 somethings, or middle-aged people, want to feel old or be associated with anything that might make them feel that way (have you ever heard or seen someone rant about receiving an AARP letter in the mail?).
