May I ask how long it ended up taking? Did you just notify the hotel ahead of time and they held it for you?

That sounds good. Just so I'm clear, you're saying to buy a T-Mobile Non-Stop sim, pop it in the cell phone, and use that to call the landline number that EnjoyPrepaid/Cloncom give you? Sounds pretty reasonable. I'm guessing you can buy those T-Mobile sims readily in Munich?
I'll be in Austria first for 6 days and I plan to get an eety sim for that. Also, my phone is a Blackberry -- I don't have service now (I got it on ebay), but I was looking forward to Solomo's cheap data rate, though the voice options are first priority -- internet access would just be icing on the cake.
