Don't know much about debitel or Jamba. Blau is REPORTEDLY a good alternative to Simyo. I have a Simyo card. As you note, blau is basically being GIVEN away.

I too are heading for Germany - mid-summer. We are a party of 4 and have 3 German SIMs and a Riiing. I think I could live with that although contacting the person (probably me) with the Riiing card will be somewhat limited -- SMS is probably the best way and then I could call for more details. BUT I could also go for another local SIM offer. I am waiting to see what happens. Also waiting to figure out if I should change either of my D1 tarifs. Both cards are XtraOne with 9 cents per minute weekends to landlines. NONSTOP might be better at least for the time we are there.

If you are going any time soon, I personally think that, if you can stand E+ and 1800 coverage, then the Medion Aldi Talk is the best bet at 15 cents per minute. I don't have it myself nor do I own stock in Aldi or Medion.

Again, we can hope that our German friends will add their thoughts.
