Month in Italy Novice

I'm in a similar situation to Maggie. I'm thinking of going with Unomobile, since their instructions and even their website are in English: http://www.unomobile.it/en/index.htm

How common is Unomobile? Can I buy a Unomobile card at the airport (Florence or Pisa)?

UnoMobile is available only at Carrefour and DìPerDì supermarkets. It's true that the website is in English and istructions too, but I guess it's quite hard to find an English speaking cash accountant at a supermarket... I'd go with the "traditional" operators, but you can give it a try, the requirements are the same as any other operator, i.e. codice fiscale and passport, but usually people at supermakets are more used to sell vegetables rather than simcards....

tell us the name of the town you are going... we can check the shops list on the website, and also AndreA, my "colleague" here, is from Florence, so he can surely help you more.
