There's also a second prepaid offer called, for some strange reason, Prepago 3. It can have cheaper rates the more you refill and use your credit. It doesn't seem so interesting here.

Useful information

In August 2006 it was no problem to buy a prepaid pack including Motorola C139 with German ID in Bogota (for about 25 US $). Sending SMS was successful to two German operators, T-Mobile and E-plus (others not tested). Receiving SMS was possible from E-plus, but did not work with T-Mobile.

Thanks to Kelli for the info!
