Hooked Up, MTV Style
After several weeks of difficultly getting Internet access here in Italy, I've ended up at the other other extreme. 3.6 Megabit Broadband that works anywhere in Italia, on the train, at the beach and also on the [pictured] Patio over looking the Mediterranean! Oh, and I forgot to mention it's also free, all thanks to Vodafone Italia's HSDPA network and their 1 month free promo. After that it's €30 per month for 100 hours, but only when you use it as the SIM is prepaid. If you don't have enough credit, the Internet access is suspended until you do, which means it'll be good to go next time I'm in Italia.
Initially I did have some problems with the account not being setup correctly. It had defaulted to €4,50 per hour, and of course I ran out of credit really quickly. However, I went into the Vodafone store and managed to explain the problem and get the whole thing sorted out in Italian, and I even got a €10 credit in addition to free Internet for rest of my trip!
