My first try using Android in a smartphone is a prepaid $150 LG Thrive. I've found it to be a very nice starter smartphone but it's easy to see why it only costs $150. If you don't use a lot of minutes/messages, you could even use the phone functions and go the prepaid route on either AT&T or T-Mobile. The data plan is optional on prepaid.
I've never done a prepaid phone, so I have no idea how they work. Can you just buy one, turn off the 3G, and then use it like an iPod touch?
