As far as in VCE, their website says there are two tabbachi in there:

I always buy recaricards from tabacchi. I haven't been to these in particular, but they all seem to sell them.
Thanks for looking that up. I was going to but you beat me to it. That's probably the easiest way.

I do know that when I am in Italy, I can download certain apps that you can't when you're in the States (for example, immobiliare.it's Android app). I'll try to download it next week when I am there.

Added - just checked them - both tabacchi are post security so they won't do me any good inbound.

I gotta say, I really want to make a business selling euro SIM cards and recharges at US gateway airports. Forget selling FX, you could make a lot selling American tourists SIM cards on this side of the Atlantic.
