Cell phones for kids ages 8 to 12! That’s the busines of Firefly Mobile, a new cell phone provider in the US who has introducted a small, kid-friendly cell phone. It glows, has just 5 keys and comes packed with lots of lights, sound and animation. Most importantly, it gives parents the ability to control what their kids can do with it.
The phone is available from www.fireflymobile.com for $99.95 including 30 minutes of prepaid talk time. When time runs out, airtime can be purchased in $10, $25 and $50 denominations; good for 40, 100 and 200 minutes, respectively.
Love the idea of pre-teens armed with phones or hate it, the Firefly looks to be a smart device for kids.
