How would my character refer to a pre-paid cell phone in 2002? She's not a criminal, but she's a former (a decade earlier) cop who has worked with CIA and other government agencies. She's using the phones to keep in contact with her elderly mother because she is supposedly dead, but is actually in hiding with a new identity.
Would she call the phones disposable? Pre-paid? By the brand name? Does the term burner date back that far? If it does, would she be likely to use it, since she's actually one of the "good-guys" rather than a criminal?
Thanks!
