I just spent several months helping someone who got released after 40 years. He got used to smartphones very quickly. He'd seen them in movies and TV, and they have tablets in most prisons these days to download music and movies and do texting.

Had to teach him how to pay with a debit card and PIN for everything as that wasn't a thing before he went in.

Humans are very adaptable.
