Hi, just wanted to clarify the Switzerland question.

09 has some technical arrangements with the Swiss operators that would not be possible if roaming was also allowed in Switzerland - this is an industry wide problem in the prepaid roaming world, it just happens that in 09's case it's Switzerland which is unfortunate, but without going into any technical details, it also means that 09 and it's partners support 190 roaming countries with considerably more reliability than otherwise.
