Welcome to Europe. You are right. You can buy a German Vodafone SIM and use all its included allowances without surcharges in the Netherlands and France too. Telekom and O2 (the two big rivals of Vodafone here) and some resellers have matched their offer. So you can also buy one of their products.

This only refers to their voice & data plans like CallYa, not to data-only SIMs. But you can take a voice and data plan and load it with data mostly (1 to 4 GB and some more data add-ons). Data-only plans are rare in Germany as voice and text given out for a minimal price. Remeber that only the loaded or added allowances of your Vodafone plan can be used abroad without surcharges, but the default (per-MB) rate in Germany for data is so high, that you shouldn't use it anyway.
