You are too young for a cell phone...
When my 8 year old daughter was visiting me last year, she kept asking for a cell phone. I told her I thought she was too young for it. After all, the set of walkie-talkies I bought for her are usually useless to her and her friends because one of the units is always missing.
Now Mattel will soon start selling working pre-paid cell phones alongside the Barbie doll.
In an article by Business Week it says:
The new Barbie-brand phones aren't toys at all, but real phones. Mattel expects them to appeal to 8- to 14-year-old girls and will offer them in all stores that carry Barbies, company executives told BusinessWeek Online.
So it would seem every time she loses it I would have to buy another one for $49.95? Hmmm! I don't think so!

Kids won't want the barbie phone a month after you get it because they will say it's not a real cell phone and they will out grow barbie. If you are thinking of getting your child a barbie phone, reconsider.
