Another option is the ZTE Blade Spark Z971 (about $100), it works on Public Mobile

According to gsmarena...no problem.

Make sure it's unlocked. Apparently some LG's need a full reset to have data working here. Cross that bridge when you get there.

@Anonymous to be clear: not "working here" specifically, but working after changing providers. In other words, it's not a Public Mobile issue, but an LG quirk/bug.
