Vodafone Romania prepaid internet card

Friendly advice: try not to give your credit card to small shops (or well to anybody) except ATMs (preferably attached to a bank) and maybe cashiers in large supermarkets.

live.pre.vodafone.com should work with the 3.99 250MB plan just fine. I didn't try any tethering (probably it's discouraged anyway) but android and symbian apps worked just fine (including non-web apps like fring and mai clients, no proxy of course). You can check if you have the option activated and how much it's left with *123# (free)
Now I remember: important point: your "phone" sim might not be activated for "mobile internet"; ask somebody to call for you *222 (free) and make sure you have "mobile internet" active in the system (it is just a flag, not something you have to pay for and independent from any subscription).
There's also indeed the "data" card (new) and you can buy the SIM for nothing I believe and only put let's say 5 EUR for 500 MB (using in 3G USB dongles is permitted and encouraged).
