Thanks to all who helped clarify the best option for a sim card. Armed with this new knowledge we got a phone unlocked before we went and bought a data cable.. found a friendly shop where the guy sorted everything out for us. Bought the 25€ and also the 20€ tariffs as we needed daytime also for work.. would be interested to know how the 25€ option works during the daytime.. does that come off any credit you have for voice usuage perhaps?
Only one problem.. would not work! Spent hours over the next few days running from phone shop to computer shop and back until the answer emerged.. the shop in Ireland had sold me the wrong data cable! oh my... once we bought a new one it worked in moments!! Oh well, it did mean I got to discover useful parts of Sulmona that I had no cause to venture in to before! haha
