Incoming calls are free (140 countries) and thus, I'm placing my calls through Hiboo (www.hiboo-mobile.com). Calls are 0,40€/min to many countries (+80) (landline). Cheaper than 09 prices.

Of course, it means "two callback". But it's worth.

I do the same with callbackworld - for 11 Eurocent to german landlines and 30 Eurocent to german mobiles... or 11 Eurocent to US-mainland. Cheaper than 09 and cheaper than hiboo...

I checked the tariffs you give but they are for calling from a landline of your home country !?!? I'm sorry to say that it makes no comparison possible with calls from a mobile when abroad (roaming) which I was considering because it is the subject of this topic.

Nope.

Check the calculator:

FROM Iceland cellular TO Germany landline = 16 Us-ct = 11,7 Euro-ct
FROM Iceland cellular TO germany cellular = 41 us-ct = 30 Euro-ct
