Hi People and sorry...I'm sure this has been asked a thousand times...but I just cant find an exact answer to my question.

So this is the situation:

In Italy for three weeks...need a SIM for probably a dozen short calls...and as an emergency.....more important is a data add -on for day to day navigation [on foot] and the ability to tether to my WiFi iPad......but dont plan any massive data downloads.

I can buy from WIN Termini [have generated a Codice Fiscale]

The TIMxSmartphone Maxi looks fine for data.

I'd like to buy a SIM plus the Maxi for data and to save mucking around, buy enough credit to last the senario above without having to re-charge.

So, two questions.....What SIM plan should I look at?

and what should I spend....10euro for a SIM and add another 20-30euro credit to cover all costs?

Many Thanks
