Sorry Maxie, but this website is called PrePaidGSM and it talks about prepaid offers only, so I find it quite strange that you couldn't find information on prepaid offers here:
http://www.prepaidgsm.net/forum/euro...ata-italy.html
since they are ALL prepaid offers, and none has a 2-years minimum contract.

By the way, there's a new offer by 3, which I must add, which is called "SuperInternet".
http://www.tre.it/public/scheda_opzi...F=184&ref=22_1
With this offer you pay 5€ per month and you get 3GB of data (only using 3 network in Italy or abroad, no roaming on TIM or other operators).
You can activate this offer on any 3 prepaid card.

If 3GB is too little for you, you can buy two 3 prepaid cards and activate the option on both of them, so you have 6GB. If that's not enough you can buy 3 prepaid cards and so on...

It's by far the best offer on prepaid, in my opinion.
What's important is to check if you have 3 coverage in the place you are going to.

3 has HSDPA coverage in Corvara (BZ), so sc32valve should have no problem.
Officially 3 has a 7.2Mbps HSDPA network, but often speed is much slower...

Thank you, Effendi
This offer is very good.
But I did not understand one thing
La soglia di 3GB inclusa nell'opzione Super Internet, invece, ti verrà erogata ogni primo giorno del mese, indipendentemente dalla data di attivazione/rinnovo.

Does it means that if I activate card on the middle of the month, I can use it only half month?

It's quite an ambiguous sentence... It says that the 3GB forfait starts on the 1st day of each month, not depending on when you activate/renew the offer. But, of course, I guess that if you activate the offer on i.e. the 15th of December you can use it at once, but you will have to pay again on the 1st of January. In any case it's not clear, I have to investigate!
