SIMs for two Nexus Ones in Rome

I thought that I had bookmarks for a page that explained exactly what to do and say to get a pair of Wind SIM cards with Internet No Stop but I can't find them. I believe that our Nexus Ones on the USA T-Mobile bands (UMTS 900/1700/2100) will cover 3G in Italy. I have printed out Effendi's guide to prepaid GSM in Italy including the Wind and TIM sections. I have also printed out the Prepaid Data in Italy page. Finally, I have my Codice Fiscale.

We are arriving into Fiumicino and it seems that we would be best served by Wind although it seems that there are no Wind resellers in the airport. We will be in Rome the whole time. My plan is to take the train to Termini. That's what I did 10 years ago.

I would consider TIM, but it seems that they only support time based billing (which I struggle to see how would ever be effective on a phone). Can you use the Internet Senza Limiti on an Android Phone?

Is there a Wind retailer in Termini? We will switch to Metro at Termini so something inside the station would be best, but close buy would not be bad either.

If anyone has any other suggestions that would be most appreciated. Also, any links would be helpful.

Thanks
