Leave your iPad pointed at a key location (the front door?) and if movement is detected your iPad will spot it and let you know. Use your old iPad as a remote video surveillance system for your home, using AtHome Camera Free or an equivalent app. There's no shortage of organizations seeking iOS devices to use for good causes, for example the HollyRod Foundation which will donate the tablet to special needs children - Macworld has a lengthy list. Alternatively get an S-video or VGA cable, or Apple TV, and you can watch content from your iPad on your TV. Most of the big TV firms (Sony, for example) already offer iOS apps that can control their TV sets, so your old iPad could be the household TV remote. Spend 99cents to turn your iPad into a conversation timepiece using the QLockTwo app, which tells the time in words. With a MIDI interface and your choice of amp emulation app, your old iPad can become your main guitar effects unit, left permanently connected to your rig. (Your iPad could also act as an digital photo frame).
IPads make great recipe books and (connected) shopping list managers for the kitchen - just attach them to your wall. Get yourself a good set of Bluetooth speakers and your iPad becomes your dedicated music and radio system, with the added advantage of guests also being able to play their music through your system.
