Evelyn, along with t-mobile no longer doing contracts, thanks for informing
us that verizon no longer does contracts. I wonder if a t and t or sprint
have gotten away from contracts yet as well. It's really good to know about
verizon. As far as the lg 450 when I searched for it on the internet, it
mentioned t-mobile and the family mobile. If it's on any other networks if
anyone knows, that would be interesting to find out. I don't know if the lg
450  was unlocked if it would work on verizon. It's just  a matter of asking
at the store or calling the customer service.I would also be interested to
know which other accessible feature phones are on verizon besides the gusto
III.
