SIM in Austria and Germany

As I am about to follow the same tour track, can someone indicate the best practice for buying SIM card in Austria while the main usage will be internal calls within the traveling group.
Thanks,
Meny

Several month ago I boght an A1 SIM which cost EUR 10 and gives you 1000 min/month of voice calls inside Austria.
Another possibility is to buy a Golan Telecom SIM before leaving Israel - using it will cost ILS 0.70 (EUR 0.14)/min - ILS 0.35 for an outgoing (callback) min and another ILS 0.35 for the incoming minute. It has the advantage of cheap calls home. However - a Golan SIM has to be ordered by the internet and may take a few days to arrive, so order it at least a week before you fly and choose the NIS 9.9/month plan (unless you intend to use it heavily back home).
