Expresso Wifi - Other Wifi Devices
My husband and I are going to Italy in September (first time!) and I started looking around at options for us to access the internet on our phones/ipads. Everything I've read so far said that there's wifi in the hotels, but we're renting a car to drive south from Rome and would like to have access to the maps application on our phone in case we get lost, so wifi in hotels won't work. I looked at a few, and Expresso Wifi seems like it works pretty well from what I've read so far, but I would love any personal insight anyone has!
Thanks!
Ashley

and ipads are unlocked by default, so you could possibly just get a sim card for the ipad. Some companies are offering data-only plans that are reasonable and are targetted at tablet users. Getting a phone unlocked is probably a better idea, but sometimes you can't, so this might be an option for you.
I'd hate to have to depend on finding a wifi signal when I'm in a car and lost. Are they really going to have good coverage?

You could purchase a Garmin GPS through Amazon and not need any wifi. Make sure it contains European maps or it is compatible with a Simm card containing European maps.
We use this every year in Italy.
Buon viaggio,
