I saw some awfully nice looking electronic Janomes that I would think would interest her and at least in Poland fit in that price range. Check them out. I assume they sell them there.....
I agree with you. Having a LCD screen and the ability to push a touch screen, etc. would definitely add to the "cool factor" this younger, computer-savvy generation of sewers.
