Thank you. I thought that it seemed odd that a mobile plan would only (and could only) be for a computer versus a phone.

I think I'll go with TIM so that I can get the SIM at the airport and activate it before getting to Termini. That way it will be activated earlier than waiting till Termini.

How long does it usually take for TIM to activate a SIM like this?

When I activated mine they told me it would be one hour.
When I inserted my sim card into my phone 15 minutes after walking out of the TIM shop it was already working

Thank you. That's good to know. Did you have to do anything once you inserted the SIM? TXT anything or did the retailer do all of the activation. I just want to make sure that I have everything detailed as I don't speak very much Italian.

Nope! Although I did call the information line to check my credit before I have sent the SMS to activate TIMxSMARTPHONE.
