idle rainy day pondering - cheapest way to have a phone number + a little data for a backup iPhone?
#9
FreedomPop, as mentioned above. I bought a cheap android phone that I can put a large microSD card in to basically use as a music player. I got the Freedom Pop sim for free (or maybe $1)... they have deals all the time. After a free month of their premium service, you go online and change it to their free plan. You do have to be diligent because they'll "helpfully" charge your CC if they think you're getting close to going over your free allotment of data. Also, if you don't use the phone for a couple of months, they deactivate it until you call back. Probably not good if you're wanting to use it in emergencies. Best bet is to use it at least once a month to keep the service going.
