Seems so.

There's still a lot of potential benefit for this forum, in terms of finding country-specific SIMs. I'm surprised more nationals of a given country don't come to research the availability of prepaid service in their own country.

Absolutely! I actually meant the "International Sim" forum specifically. Since there used to be a whole more chatter about a year ago or so. The European forum is still quite active.

I completely agree. Just one small comment to:

I suspect that each country has their own national telecom forums with a lot more chit chat on this.

Also I think we could do with a bit of a facelift in terms of being able to compare national SIMs for a given country. For example, a simple table with a few key fields which could enable 'side-by-side' comparisons of national SIMs/MVNOs. How about a handful of fields like:

SIM name; Package price; Startup credit included; Price/min national; National SMS; International SMS; Price/min to EU country; Price/min to USA; Data rate/MB.

Further details like roaming rates, international offers etc. can obviously still be found in the usual way.
