For those wanting smartphone functionality without smartphone prices, I suggest using T-Mobile prepaid. I have a Nexus 4 that I use without a data plan. 90% of my life is spent within the comforting rays of wifi and I use my phone for email, web browsing, etc. When I'm out I can make voice calls when needed. The best part, though, is that you can purchase data access for $3 a day. So when I travel I usually turn on the data so I can stay connected and look things up.
