Like BetaRose said, they converted it to a 529. My sister has it for both of her kids. I think a 529 will make it easier to travel than the prepaid did. It was hell getting that one out of the grasp of the state of Florida.
I had Florida Pre-paid, and qualified for Bright Futures (back when it was Florida Academic Scholars). Not only did I go out of state, I went to a private, expensive out of state. But, I didn't want to be in school with all 39 of my HS classmates, so it was worth it.
Louisiana has a program called TOPS, which is essentially the same thing.
