I can get the SIM card delivered to my hotel, which seems like a viable option. Not sure how they handle the passport check or other paperwork when you do that.
I would order it ahead of time whichever way you go - they ask for a scanned image of your passport when you do this. I think you're also able to register and process your passport on their mobile site if you intend to sign up then. But purchasing ahead of time should save you the extra step.
