Verizon Inpulse a good deal for parents and kids

My husband & I recently made the switch. Fairly happy we did. Most everyone we know is on the Verizon network, so at $.99/day (only when we use it) we can speak unlimited to one another and ANYONE ELSE on verizon (Prepaid or not). For $10/mo we can have unlimited text too with any other VW customer, plus 250 'other' carrier messages.
It works well for us. When our kids are ready for cell phones - this will be the way we go, because you can also program the phones to not allow calls unless from certain numbers. Would be a great way to control your childs spending for when they want a cell phone.
