2G and 3G Cell and WiFi in Europe

If you are coming to Europe, regardless of country, and think you might want a cell phone while you are here or if you want to tie into a 3G mobil internet network I recommend the following:

1. Coverage Map: http://www.sensorly.com

2. Buying Strategy: Buy your cell phone or usb wifi dongle in Europe.  Buy your usage or data plan when you get here as well.   It will be much cheaper.  Cell phones with limited function are about €10.  USB wifi dongles are the same.  I am finding advertised internet prices to be higher than the price in the store for both pay as you go cell phone service and 3G mobil usb.

3.  WiFi is pronounced wee fee in most of Europe.
