T-Mobile Euro Internet Booster - cheap data roaming in Europe

Ok, here is my first experience with these boosters:

- bought a prepaid "pay per day" data (although it had voice+SMS as well) SIM
- was surprised to find out that there's no roaming at all on these cards
- however the EU boosters ARE available to "normal" T-Mobile.uk prepaid cards and the type of the card can be changed for free every 30 days (support is quite responsive and available both on the phone and email). Once the provisioning of the SIM is changed you can't use it with a 3G stick in your laptop (I'm sure there are way around this but for 3 MB is not worth it)
- used once the booster for 1 day (3 MB = 1 pound). Activation is done on the phone, browser needed (you need to chose which booster you want). Really useful, did not even get to use all 3 MB (not even 2). Good stuff.
