1800 could be not enough, 900 EGSM can be very useful too. W-CDMA 2100 could be helpful too, as well as EDGE support.

Of course, a data card with 900, 1800 & 2100 would be best. My point is that with Wind you need to have 1800 MHz.

It's not totally true, there are many places where Wind has 900 only coverage, usually on EGSM channels. Of course if he'll stay in bigger towns you need 1800.

I ordered a great unlocked data card on eBay. Now i need to get a sim by next Friday when I leave or I guess I'll just get one there preferably get one before I leave so if anyone could tell me where I might be able to purchase one in time. Also all the sites are in Italian how do I activate it and select/pay for my data plan

Thanks,
Adam
