Yeah, I figured as much. Realistically, I think the answer is to tough it out for a year and then dump Verizon (saying goodbye to my grandfathered unlimited 4G plan), in return for buying unlocked phones and using T-Mobile. Then, she can have a much broader array of phones to choose from without any of the lock-in that tends to come from the cheaper feature phones. (Example: so far as I can tell, the only way to extract a photo you take with that LG is to send it via MMS, which costs money, versus plugging in a USB cable and just copying it.)
