TracFone Motorola sumpin or other.
Emergency or "Is it an emergency - otherwise I'll call you when I get home".
The best part is, I buy only the minutes I think I might suck up, and that's it! NO contracts, no baloney crap to deal with...just a simple phone that dials out and recieves calls and it works fine in and out of state. (It does have a camera, but I dont use it)
Wal-mart $19.99 with lifetime double minutes with every card purchase
