The english follows.

J'essaie de collecter des informations tarifaires concernant le t�l�phone
mobile � travers l'Europe (r�seaux num�riques GSM ou DCS1800 exclusivement),
en g�n�ral et la Suisse en particulier pour le pr�sent message.

Je m'int�resse � une description des diff�rentes formules possibles (op�ra-
teur, soci�t� de commercialisation, montant du forfait mensuel (dur�e de
communication incluse, prix de la minute hors forfait), frais de mise en 
service...).

Je cherche �galement � savoir s'il est possible d'acheter une carte SIM 
pr�pay�e permettant d'appeler pendant une dur�e pr�d�termin�e � l'int�rieur
de la Suisse.
Comment s'appelle un tel produit (en France c'est une Mobicarte) ? 
Combien co�te-t-il ? 
Combien de temps offre-t-il ? 
De combien de temps dispose-t-on pour l�utiliser ? 
Comment peut-on le recharger ? 
Une fois vide, combien de temps le num�ro d�appel est-il valide ? 
O� peut-on acheter un tel produit ? 

Si vous n�avez pas toutes ces r�ponses, vous connaissez peut-�tre une FAQ 
ou un site web qui les auraient.

Merci � tous.

Si vous souhaitez me repondre remplacez le ".gov" de mon adresse par ".fr"


I am trying to get some information on cellular phone (digital networks 
only i.e. either GSM or DCS 1800) rates througout Europe and especially 
in Switzerland for this very post.

I am interested in any description of package : provider , selling company,
description of the monthly fee (how much communication time included, 
price of any additionnal minute), setup fee...). 

I also want to know if a system where you buy a specific SIM which allows 
you to call for a certain amount of time inside Switzerland exists. 
How is it called (in France it's called Mobicarte) ? 
How much does it cost ? 
How much time is included ? 
How long is it worth ? 
How do you reload it ? 
How long is an empty SIM valid before being cancelled along with the phone number ? 
Where do you buy such an item ? 

Maybe you can answer some of those questions or maybe you know of either 
some FAQ or some URL where I can find some answers ?

Thank you everyone.

If you wish to answer, please replace ".gov" string in my my anti-spam address with ".fr".
