Yes, Fonic seems to be more favorable option for short stays in Germany.

And thanks for the info about the wiki page

Two recent developments on Fonic mobile:

1. They've introduced a third data tariff, particularly suitable for mobile handsets, the "mobile internet pack" with included data volume of 200MB for 9.95€/month.

To activate the data plan send an SMS with the text START HANDYINTERNET to 36642. To deactivate it, send the text STOP HANDYINTERNET again to 36642. With both activation/deactivation you will receive an SMS confirmation.

The 9.95€ are taken automatically off your remaining credit in the beginning of each calendar month (except if there is insufficient credit). Also, after exceeding the 200MB per month, bandwidth will be throttled to GPRS speed.

2. They have started offering number portability. On top of that, all new subscribers that will port their numbers from their old provider to Fonic, they will get 1 month free calls to all German networks.

The other thing about Fonic is that their advertised cheap calling rates to most of the Europes landlines does not seem to work everywhere.

They promised to fix this, but already over a month it does not work as it should...

Do you know for which countries it doesn't work? I'm calling landlines in many countries (UK, Ireland, France, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium, Greece, Italy to name a few) and it always charges the advertised rate, i.e., 9c/min.
