As you progress throughout your life you realize that the older you get the closer your are to death, the only thing you cannot change.

Well, my mother does not have a cellphone, and I would like to get her one for christmas, specifically one that can text and if its possible a smart phone. However, here is the catch-It must be prepaid, as in the tracfone model (You pay X amount of money for so many days/minutes) and I simply does not know how this would work, especially when you add Web into the mix, can anyone help me here?

I use Virgin Mobile. $35 dollars a month. It's great.

Please do not send me group invites.

There's a $30/mo prepaid plan through T-mobile on the Walmart site. Unlimited texts. Unlimited data [throttled after 5gb]. 100 mins.

Where do you live? Check coverage of different carriers in your area.

I was trying to figure out how that would work with virgin mobile, but I wouldn't be able to afford that unfortunately.

Sorry to bump, but another thing I am curious about is whether or not Tracfone could cost a monthly service

If you can't afford $35/month, you should probably re-evaluate your cash flow.

OP needs an Obamaphone.

OT: I have ATT with unlimited data grandfathered in - 22% discount through work as well. I use far too much data to ever give that up.

Same here, $35 gets you 300 minutes, unlimited text/web.
$45 gets you 1200 minutes, unlimited other stuff.

You can buy a card at the store each month and punch in the number on your phone or prepay with a credit card. your choice.

I'm 16, I could afford it, but I don't want to have a bill in my life quite yet, and my mom already has a cellphone bill for me which is 90 a month.

I am sick of hearing ignorant people say this. Obamaphones were first issued in 2008 under Bush. The basis for the law goes all the way back to Reagan.
