Kåre, According to this website, there are several options. http://prepaidwithdata.wikia.com/wiki/USA However, when I moved to the States (from UK) with my Android phone, everywhere I went they told me I had to buy the phone from them to use with the SIM. The pay as you go plans are pretty close to non-existent here, and where they do exist, they pretty much suck.

We're a bunch of Danes visiting the Code4Lib conference in Seattle. But the prospect of a full week being offline on my trusted Android phone is scary. And the price of international data roaming is simply scary. So I was wondering if any US carriers are selling data-enabled SIM cards, at a price that would be reasonable for a week's usage, and which are also available for visiting tourists? Any input welcome. Thanks. Best, Kåre
