Looking for unlimited 3G usage for 2 months

Hi, I am going to be walking across France, from Geneva to Roncevaux for 2 months and to keep me sane I'd like to stay in contact with the rest of the world over 3G. I will phone local hotels to make bookings and occassionally phone Germany and the UK.

Reading other posts most people are looking for cheap calls. For me it is all about unlimited email and web access.

I will be entering France near Neydens.

Given I am walking, the location of the place to purchase a SIM is important, and cost is therefore slightly more flexible than if I could drive to the cheapest place.

1. Do I need to go to a phone store or can I use a newsagent
2. What exactly do I ask for
3. What would be reasonable to pay

Thankyou in anticipation. Nicola

You could get a SIM-only contract (1-month minimum contract length) from SFR, otherwise B&You or Free. All three charge €20/month, giving you 3 gigabytes of data and unlimited calls to fixed lines anywhere in the EU as well as to French mobiles.

Thankyou NFH, much appreciated. Will give them all a look. Hope London is well. Nicola
