Quick Guide
SIM Card is not included
Excellent solution for international roaming with mobile devices also works with AT&T's iPad SIM I purchased this from Network Overstock prior to traveling on several trips to Europe. I was able to connect both my iPhone, iPad and MacBook Air to this for hours. Decent speed in most places. With the use of Line2 (or something like Skype), you can avoid needing any local voice SIM card. It is extremely easy to get an iPad pay-as-you-go (PYG, or pre-paid) SIM card in most European (perhaps other) destinations. The cost is typically around 10 Euros / Pounds for at least one GB of data. This device takes regular SIM, but you can easily put a micro-SIM in there (just position it such that it covers the connectors) - no need for an adapter. The MF60 would typically find the right APN settings automatically, but if not, just Google for APN settings and the provider. the ones I used so far were Vodafone Portugal, 3 in the UK, and Bouygues in France (SFR used to have them but when I was there they said the cards were not available due to technical problems...). Note sometimes you will need to go and enter a PIN to unlock the card, and as mentioned also to change the APN settings, but you can do so from a browser of a laptop, iPhone or iPad (you go to [...] at the browser once you connect via WiFi to the MF60). It is all explained in the little manual that comes with the device. Only thing I will do in the future is to get an extra battery (available for about $20). This also works well with AT&T's iPad SIM, so you can take it out of the iPad and use with the MF60 MiFi instead of more expansive iPhone tethering (which will also drain your iPhone's battery).
Highly recommended - as long as you are not afraid of minimal settings as explained in the manual.
