OK, that link to the PDF did the trick. I loaded a stock quote page and it loaded about 500 KB and I got to pay about a euro for it.

Thanks for the find.

What is odd is that the SIM has APNs for Vodaphone and I assumed since Poste Mobile was a MVNO using the Vodaphone network, it would work that way. But in fact, creating a manual APN with the settings in that link did the trick.

OK, I will just use this for voice from now on.

Including maybe some in other Euro countries, since even roaming, the rates seem to be better than some other countries. But I guess people in other countries would not like calling a foreign mobile number.

OK, I just tried to book a taxi for early morning flight out of Florence.

They wanted my number.

I gave them the Poste Mobile number.

They refused that number because they consider it an international number?

It starts with +39, the right country code.

But they don't want to pay to call a cellular phone?

They claim the 10 digits following the country code makes it an international number.

It's incredible this thing about taxi. They don't know postemobile so this is the problem. Every italian's sim has 10 numbers!
