I will be in Italy and looking for a pre-paid SIM that will allow me use my Treo 650 for data. I am looking for a provider that will allow for Dial-UP Access, so the Treo will act as a modem for my laptop.

Some carriers block this type of tethered access and I was wondering if anyone know if TIM or Wind specifically blocks or does not block DUN.

Also, I read that Wind has better performance, but TIM offers EDGE (from this post). I am not sure what that means...which one is best?
