Gsm In Italy

I really suggest you to buy the simcard here in Italy. In this period Wind costs just 5 euros (including 5 euros of credit), Vodafone 10/5, TIM I think 20/10 or something like that. For Sicily, anyway, TIM has surely the best coverage, probably followed by Wind (Vodafone is usually not great in the extreme south of Italy, but things could have changed in the meanwhile, but I know several Sicilians all happy with Wind).
You can find cheap phones as well, maybe also a dual band 900/1800 if you plan to use it just in Europe, Asia, Africa and Pacific (and Brazil).
