Which pre-paid sim card has the best coverage and provides 3G and or cellular data at a reasonable rate? Is there a 3G wireless internet only sim card? Some countries have stringent rules on what is required to obtain a prepaid phone account, what are the rules for Spain?

Any suggestions are welcome, other than international roaming,which is overpriced for data!

Hi Frank -

There was quite a discussion about this issue last month - you'll find a number of suggestions and opinions here:

Members have had experiences with a number of providers. I'm going with this option that was suggested by one of our members.

It's free except for the euros you want loaded onto the SIM card and carrier-free in more than 120 countries.
