Best Phone Deal?

Hi I am looking into Face time for a disabled neighbour and to offer her the best deal around for a mobile phone(she is insistent she needs a smart phone). What is the better deal to buy an iPhone and then select the best sim network or as she is with O2 go to the store and buy a contract phone?
Also as she is deaf I have advised he that an iPad2 maybe the better option with Face Time. Am I giving her the best advice?

    Facetime need a Wifi Network it won't currently work over 3G. It also requires the person called to have a i device or suitable Mac.

    Before you go do wn this route you may be best finding out if the people she can call will be able to take that call, if they are not in wifi coverage when the call is to be made facetime will fail.
