Net10 V176 a pretty decent affordable phone!

I bought this phone (Net10 V176) about 6 months or so back and it is a great mobile phone for those of us who don't need or want to live on the phone all day/night and don't need a built in camera, mp3 player, etc.
It does what I, as a 40-something, need: It makes pretty reliable calls and text messaging. It also has a few limited cheezy built in games as well but that's not what this phone is for. I make a "reasonable" amount of phone calls each month and never exceed the Net10 150 minute / 30 day limit the cheapest ($14.95) phone card yields. That's a bargain in my book and plenty for me, although that would never fly for a teenage girl who uses minutes like breathing air.
