Thanks Wolfbin for your response and the wiki. I need the sim primarily for Italy but also Ireland. The EU roaming law is certainly helpful. However, things get a lot more complicated if you want the sim activated and ready when you are currently in the USA. To summarize my research, it seems Tellink is the gold standard for network affiliate roaming. After you confirmed what I found re: trouble discovering roaming partners for most sims, I decided to go ahead and get Tellink sim, but their USA phone number gives me error messages! Plus I don't see recent messages from anyone discussing the service, and Orange network (what Tellink uses) is supposed to be undergoing some kind of transformation at end of March? I'm having second thoughts. It certainly seems like Orange network (or whatever it will be called now) would be the one to use if roaming agreements are still that comprrehensive (practically every network in Europe? how was that accomplished?). When I see comments about lack of demand for an International sim, I have to assume most come from those traveling in EU who believe that EU roaming laws will give them consistent coverage in every EU country, or they simply don't care. I may just go with Piranha, used them before and it was ok.
