Had some questions about cell phones a bit ago:

I ended up getting them a Tracfone (thanks Paul F. and michaelb) even though it doesn't officially cover Canada. They will be spending most of their time in Alaska so this is OK.
I got them 15 months of service, double minutes on the life of the phone, and 920 minutes of airtime at a bit under $.20/minute including phone. Those online coupons are very useful... So far, service has been great and they are getting good coverage in their main Alaska location. They even got some service out in the sticks.
Oh, and I got a phone number in MY area code so I make a local call to reach them. Hah!!!
Thanks to everyone for the advice, I feel a lot better having them in closer contact.
Happy weekend everyone!
