Need advice on prepaid phone

[Submit]

I am looking to get a prepaid phone as a gift and I am curious if someone has done the legwork for this and can advise where/which to get.

TIA

Virgin Mobile is the cheapest as far as minutes go.

Thanks, I think this is what I will get.

In case if you are still monitoring this thread: I just got a Virgin prepaid Kyocera phone from BestBuy for $60 (after a $20 instant rebate). It comes with $10 worth of airtime (40 to 85 minutes based on how you use it). AND you instantly get a $15 BB Gift Card that you can use to buy more airtime or anything else.

Virgin does seem to be the cheapest as far as minutes go. They also allow you to keep them the longest: 90 days.
