Unless she is like my mom and computer-phobic. She just reads over my dad's shoulder. It works perfectly for them.

If you are smart...and you are because you found this board that will be very helpful.....you will let your wife pick out her own mask with the help of her sleep doctor or provider. She may or may not make a good choice FOR HER...and by that I mean that a good choice for you might not work well for your wife....there is no "right" mask for everyone. As I'm sure you are aware, part of the mask choice is vanity....and that's for men and women. Expect her to change masks after she tries the one she picked for a week or two. I went from an Amara to a dreamwear cushion and I haven't looked back (I got the amara because i was sure I breathe through my mouth occasionally, and I found I was wrong...I breathe through my nose when sleeping)....the dreamwear cushion is easy to put on and take off, doesn't leak...it's just the right mask for ME. That doesn't make it the right mask for your wife.....let her make the choice.
