Virgin Mobile Kyocera K9 Pay-As-You-Go Wireless Phone
Cool Phone for your teen!
I bought this phone as a gift for my 13 year old daughter.  She loves it!  I like the pay as you go plan for her, and Virgin is a great company.  My daughter misplaced her phone, and the folks at Virgin suspended her account at my request to prevent anyone from using her minutes, then when she found the phone, they reactivated the account--all at no charge. Activation is free, and you only need to top up(add time) once every three months--not every month, to keep you account current! Plus you can add time at their website--no cards to buy!! All in all, you can't get a better wireless deal!
