AT&T Launches Parental Controls for Wireless

AT&T announced the launch of Smart Limits for Wireless™, a web based parental control tool for their children’s wireless service. The new service allows a parent to set usage limits on a child’s talk time, text messages, instant messages (IMs) and downloads, manage how and when a child can communicate, restrict access to mobile Web sites and allocate minutes among users of shared wireless plans. The service is priced at $4.99 a month for each line and no special handset is required.
