An alternative for international calls while traveling is to use Skype or similar and call free or at least cheaply with Skype-out. I have been in Germany for 7 months and this has cut costs very much.

A problem, however, is how to get free or cheap Internet service. My immediate problem: I am moving to Italy and do not know how to sign up for Internet or even if I can! I have found out that Fastweb has terrific plans with €9.90 per month trials and it only costs €49 to break the contract. But will I be allowed to sign up for service??

Can we start a thread about getting Internet access/service in European countries when we are there for a limited period (but more time than the usual tourist, I suppose)?
