Norway and Denmark Prepaid with 3g?
 
I am traveling to Norway and Denmark for business, and will bring my unlocked N95. I am looking for a sim with low cost calling back to the US (if possible), and definitely unlimited 3G internet in both countries...does anyone know of such a beast?

Of course I have, it was the first thing I went to. However, most of the infomation it links to is not in English, and I definately cannot gather if one SIM would give me the same rates in both countries, or if I would need to buy one SIM per country...

It's better to use each sim in its country; if you want a sim to travel into both countries you can buy an international sim

Given the data needs, I really think you need to go with two SIMs.

No European operator, afaik, gives you the same conditions out of the home country, with the sole exception of the "3 like home" offer of some operators. In Denmark there's 3, but there's not in Norway... so you surely have to go with 2 sim cards.
Unfortunately the pages here are not much updated about data, I think our friend Inquisitor could maybe help you more, for example:

Is there any place where Three Like Home still lives?

fedeprovenza 28-08-2009 21:39

Yes, in Australia, Denmark, Hong-Kong, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Austria, Sweden and UK

Effendi 29-08-2009 11:26

AFAIK only 3UK abolished it, by now...

@Effendi
The "Prepaid Wireless Internet Access Wiki" is not my work, allthough I contributed some pages there. I did start the "3G modem wiki", which is about hard- and software, but not about tariffs.

@all
As Effendi wrote, "3 like home" seems to be still available in any 3 country except for the UK. However keep in mind, that "3 like home" does only include the native 3G network abroad, not the national roaming, which 3 has in most countries. So with "3 like home" you will experience fewer coverage abroad than local 3 customers in the corresponding country.
By the way German service provider mobilcom-debitel has launched an interesting data roaming product, based on 3 Austria, which unfortunately is currently only available as an option to their postpaid customers (allthough it's prepaid), but may be sold separately soon: For € 39.80/30 days you get 5GB of traffic valid for all European 3 networks. Austrian prepaid 3 customers would only get 2GB for the same amount. Customers get an extra SIM, which needs to be topped up with 3 Austria and the data volume is of course not valid for Germany.
