Wow, some great answers and advice, Thanks guys ! So, can I get a month by month plan that I can cancel or put on hold at any time if she were to go over the limit on the plan ? Or is there anyway possible the phone will just shut down if she reaches this limit ? The phone I was looking at is called the "Optimus One" from LG
It was in a brochure I received in the mail yesterday, looks like a decent Android powered 3G smartphone with all kinds of features she would use, and it's only $199 with no contract, or $0 on a 3 year term. I paid that or more for her ipod touch last year ! The plan I described above is only $25/month, so not too bad. I just want to make sure I choose the best options in this situation so I don't get taken advantage of again, and of course, teach her some responsibility as well. Appreciate the comments !
