If you just have a tablet and want to use it for surfing you do not need the Mifi. If you have more devices with which you want to connect to internet with the same sim-card you need the Mifi and so the "per tablet" offers won't suit your needs.

Effendi, thanks for your advises and information. I am now more clearer about which plan is suitable for me. I need a same sim-card for tethering, iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. Internet 40, Internet 100 and Internet Senza Limit are different options.

About sim-card activation, I will use the Mifi to send SMS for activation. Besides, have to change the APN to inbox.tim.it then receive the replied SMS from TIM.

Many thanks

Effendi, do you think the TIM shop at Roma Termini will help me to activate the 10G Internet Senza Limiti plan? So, what I have to do is simpe insert the SIM Card into my Mifi, and change the APN "ibox.tim.it" ... that's all.

Internet Senza Limiti: 10 GB/month worth of data for € 24.00/month (plus € 5.00 activation cost)

Just send an SMS to the short number 40916 (free while in Italy, roaming rate when abroad) writing (text in orange):
- Internet Senza Limiti: PRO INTERNETSENZALIMITI

I have also searched from TIM Fag, same as your information.

May I ask again... When I purchase the above plan, then send an SMS "PRO INTERNETSENZALIMITI" by 40916 for the activation. But no any information about the "SMS Reply". Will I receive a "confirmation SMS", or just wait for a hour, the sim will automatically run itself?

I think you should receive a confirmation SMS, but I honestly don't know, I have that option on my usb modem but I payed a whole year in advance.
In any case you can check your bundle by writing INFO INTERNETSENZALIMITI to 40916 and it will tell you everything about it. Of course if it's not active it will tell you it's not active.
In any case they can activate the option for you also at the shop.

Hi Effendi,
I have surfed a website "saveonroaming.net", can order the SIM online.
Have you seen it before?

Just wonder why TIM do not offer the online ordering....
