Thanks for all the replies

I checked Piranha site and it's not very detailed, just says you get x amount of credit depending on which sim you buy. Plus whose network are they using in the various countries? I am not an expert and don't want hassles where I need to enter codes each time I cross a border. Most important is good cell coverage in all areas, alps, country, freeways, cities. The call rates seem fine but what about data?

I will try to be more clear.

I have unlocked Nexus 4. I will be visiting Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Italy, and France. I can turn off data for all apps on the phone when I want to, so it does not try to connect to internet, acts only as a phone. I will have free wifi every night and also have majic jack for calls to usa at night. I wont be making or recieving many calls, and none to USA etc. Only to call my hotels, make dinner reservations etc in Europe.

What I want is a micro sim that will allow me to make maybe 3-4 calls a day in the various countries, and if needed, I may need to check emails during the day while on the road. Most important is good cell coverage while on the road during the day, so I am a bit wary of 3rd party operators. This trip will last about 3 weeks, so I would prefer to get one microsim from a major provider that has decent calling rates, good coverage and reception, and maybe 1gb of data for the trip.

Thanks for your help!
