2. i need an unlimited pre-paid data sim for 7 days. what would be the best carrier for this? any idea on approximate cost?

thanks so much in advance for your time =)
The WIND network "All Inclusive" package currently offers unlimited Internet access for €7 per month. You'll have to pay €5 for the SIM card and probably €10 for the "All Inclusive" package (as I think I'm right in saying that they only do 'top ups' in units of €5 – so you may be left with €3 credit.) Not a bad deal for €15.

My mother-in-law, (who is visiting Italy from the States) currently has this package on her Samsung Galaxy Note and my 'other half' has it on her iPhone 4S. In both cases it's working very well.
