$10/day sounds much better than what you are dealing with at the moment. Just watch the data use apparently.
Thank you, Reds 2011. That does sound great for some of my shorter trips. I'm at 1.8 GB of usage and I've been here a little less than 3 weeks. I probably used a lot of data driving through the south where GPS is needed. This would still be more expensive than a TIM card and data, but there are some obvious potential advantages. People generally send a text to me using my USA phone number. Once that USA SIM card is gone, unless you specifically tell people to send you text messages to your email address and set up your phone properly, you will not get those messages. Not to mention the missed phone calls. It would be expensive at 300 per month, but for trips of certain length, I'm definitely going to look to it when I get back.
