I need three cell phones in a family plan, what is the cheapest and best company to use?

I commute to college an hour away and have to keep in touch with my kids. What is the best plan to use? I can settle for two phones if I have to. The kids are 9, and 10 and won't talk much , but I do. I would prefer a plan that is near 50 dollars and month and at least 500 minutes, free nights (anytime) and possibly weekends, camera phone possibly.

1. Check out www.letstalk.com. They have all the major carriers and amazing deals on phones.
2. We use T-Mobile. It costs about $50 a month (not sure, wife pays the bills). Extra phones cost $10 each. We get unlimited calls anytime between these three phones (mother-in-law too), and share 1000 minutes. Nights and weekends are free. We don't go crazy with the phones so we have leftover minutes every month. :)
3. I've always had US Cellular and I've been very happy with their pricing and service. Below is their website. You will need to enter in your zip code to get exact plan details, but I think it may be a little more than you were expecting to pay. However, we have shopped a lot of companies, and my husband and I have stayed with them because of affordability over and over again. Hope you can find what you're looking for either way....at least this will be a start for you! Good luck with your education....good for you!!! http://www.uscc.com/uscellular/SilverStream/Pages/uscellular.html
4. AT&T is a good choies for the money! It is about $50.00 and you get rollover min.
5. alltel will give you 900 national for 80 for 3 lines u can do 2 lines for 60 with 500 minutes
6. T-Mobile is a good way to go, they have a lot of cheap family plans and they have an awesome selection of phones to choose from. Sam http://trendycellular.com
7. I did some checking around for you and found that the best deal I could find via WirelessMarketPlus is a T-Mobile plan with 2 phones (3rd phone is $10/month) at $60/month for 700 anytime minutes, nights and weekends free, along with free T-Mobile to T-Mobile calling. Most of the calling plans give you free phones, and I wouldn't be surprised if you could get camera phones with this deal. If T-Mobile doesn't service your area, the next best deals I found were Sprint ($60 for 550 minutes, 2 phones; $10 per additional phone/month) and Verizon ($70 for 700 minutes, 2 phones; $10 per additional phone/month). The I-Business Operator's number in order to access the site or place orders via phone is 4636385. Hope this helps!
