I think Cosmote would be a much cheaper solution.Plus you will have best 3g signal than voda and wind.You can buy the start packs in kiosks and almost everywhere.Price is 5 euro.Have a nice stay in Greece

Yes, €5 is the price for all the players. I find it easiest to purchase at kiosks on the streets of Athens rather than stores. A friend bought his SIM at the airport, I believe at the news stand.

I use CosmOTE for voice since it has better coverage most places I use it and Wind non-stop for Internet access since the price is so reasonable.

The costs are very similar among all the players so I suggest you figure out how you will use it and compare costs. CosmOTE advertises it gives you 'contract rates' for 30 days if you refill with a €20 card. But if you are mainly using the phone to receive calls, calling costs don't matter.
