Another good deal is the Republic phone for those that don't often have a need for the data. If you are around a wifi system you can use all the data you want on the $ 10 per month plan and have unlimiated calling and text. If away from wifi and really need data, you can punch in a few keys and just use the data plan for that month. I think it sa about $ 20, but I have never needed it. One distraction is that you have to use one of thier phones. They are made by Motorola and the less expensive one is just over $
100.. Thy do not show one like I bought a few years ago,but it was about $ 175 at the time.
