Re: iPhone SIM for Europe?

[Anthony (Tony) Francis]

Good afternoon All

Whenever I have travelled to the U.K. I usually purchase a Pre-paid sim ( 
Virgin ) at Heathrow Airport, from a vending / Phone Card machine. On my last 
visit the card was working through England, through Germany and was still 
working when I was on my return journey and stopped at Dubai,the card could be 
topped up at most Supermarkets, including Germany.

Hope this helps

Tony

Re: iPhone SIM for Europe?

[David Noel]

I know very little about this topic, but one thing I seem to remember is
that Australia Post were selling a universal overseas-calling SIM based on
an internationally-oriented telecomm in Estonia (apparently a leader in
this field).

Has anyone any experience with this, or was it one of my delusional
experiences?
