    Anyone ever use Yoigo mobile service?

    Hmmmm...I'm bringing a Blackberry Curve (8900) which is a GSM phone. Will that work with a Yoigo SIM card? Are the costs the same roaming on the movistar GSM/3G network?

    Anyone ever use Yoigo mobile service?

    Any suggestions on a mobile carrier that's prepaid (or pay-as-you-go) that would work in France AND Spain? (I'll be returning to France for a week and a half after my Camino.) Ivar, did I read the Yoigo site correctly that they have a pretty cheap prepaid service? I don't speak much Spanish...

    Anyone ever use Yoigo mobile service?

    I'm leaving on Friday for SJPdP via Paris. Has anyone ever used Yoigo (http://www.yoigo.com) mobile service? It looks pretty cheap with data capping out at EU 1.20/day and rates sounding reasonable. There's also an office about a block off the path in Pamplona, where I should be on day 3 of...

    Random: Safe to have US Flag on backpack?

    Yes, this is random and paranoid...but I'm going to ask it anyway. Is it safe to have the U.S. Flag on the outside of my backpack? I don't want some Basque separatist taking my bag and doing who-knows-what to it. :) (Told you it was a random and paranoid question.)

    Shoes...gore-tex or breathability?

    What does your experience on El Camino tell you? I've been using La Sportiva trail runners that I've been happy with. Well, yesterday, I got my custom orthotics in. Now the shoe feels too small. It's fine...my lawn mowing shoes badly need replacement anyway. I leave for El Camino the last...
