    Mobile Reception and Internet Cafes?

    Does anyone know of a prepaid Spanish SIM card that comes with a data allowance? And where it can be purchased in Seville? I'd like to buy one at the start of my VdlP. I'll use public libraries or internet cafés when available, but that won't be every day, I'm sure.
