What is this Italian GPS program? And you used the iPad for the GPS?
Here's some more info I found about iPad data options in Italy:

Of course, nobody mentioned that you can just take any SIM and cut it to fit inside the microSIM slot. There are also cutters which will do that.
Would also apply to iPhone 4 if you can get an unlocked one or jailbreak and unlock it.
