Best SIM for data in Indonesia

[inquisitor]

A friend of mine will depart for Bali next week and so I'm looking for advice on which operator offers the best value for data there. Any experience is highly appreciated.

Hi Inquisitor. An aussie friend of mine (who is not very tech savvy i am afraid) recently got back from Bali. I will check with him and get back to you. But even if not, I am sure Australian forums like Whirlppol will be full of advice of people heading to Bali. After all, Bali to an Australian is almost like Mallorca to a German... "Ballerman" = "Schoolie".

Just having a quick glance at http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/archive/1866118 I see a recent post by someone called Knaff saying: "..local sim, charge up $2.50 and get 500Mb to use in 30 days."

Also have a look at this: http://www.vilondo.com/bali-travel-g...t-247-in-bali/

A 3 UK SIM could be used with their Feel at home charging the same as in UK, so add a nice data bundle.

There probably isn't time to send you a new one, but I notice one in your signature.

I'd guess a local SIM would work out a bit cheaper though.
