Please share what you have found out. I am in the same boat: 10-day trip to 3 countries, and just bought a Novatel 2352 MiFi, hoping to buy a single SIM card that would cover the trip. So far, the best rate I have seen is abroadband's 0.59 euro/MB, around $0.80/MB. That's fine, but as someone else pointed out, AT&T now offers rates of, e.g., 275MB for $99. That's only $0.36/MB. And, I can switch to the AT&T's DataPro 4GB plan, which allows my iPhone to act a personal hotspot. The DataPro 4GB plan would cost an extra $20/month, and can be deactivated upon return to the US. It seems to me that I'd be much better off using my iPhone instead of a MiFi device. Am I wrong?

Thanks,
Reza
