Exploring spanish 'prepaygo' mobile internet

I really am so grateful for this info Petkow. I've done some more research and the data rate on the regular Blau sim is only 0.19 Euro a megabyte, which compares well to the £1.50 I'd pay with T-mobile (UK) on roaming.

As I only need data in Spain while on holiday for checking email away from the hotel, I think I will get a regular blau sim for 5 Euros, which will equal 80mb of data. This should be enough for occasional web browsing and email for a week on my mobile.

Because you get 15 Euros credit when buying the 5 Euro sim, I might try and get three sims, so will have two spare for future holidays or if I use up the credit on the first. Is it likely to be a problem buying three sims, or will they limit it to 1 sim per customer do you think?

Edit: I've done some more translating and realised you don't get 15 euros credit automatically, only 5. Then you get an extra 5 if you register on the blau.es website and another 5 if you credit 20 euros twice. So maybe not so good after all.
