I'm getting one of the pre paid ones for my daughter to have when she's not able to get to a phone, in cases of emergency only.

The other day, there was a power line accident, and a severe weather alert. Her bus was stuck about a mile away from home, and she was going on 20 minutes late. A girl on her bus had one, and let her use it to call me. I spoke to the bus driver and got an idea of the situation, and when she'd be dropped off at home. I appreciated the technology at that moment.
