1) Here in the Netherlands (country code 31), data-only SIM cards are required to be tied to a 0970-number, whereas voice-and-data SIM cards are tied to 06-numbers. This as the Internet of Things threatened to create a shortage of 06-numbers. A similar difference (!) may well exist elsewhere.
2) I think that roaming charges now are forbidden across the European Economic Area (the EU and then some), but beware of loopholes. Then you could probably shop for the cheapest cards across the EEA, but remember that your cards will have a country code.
Three of my four subscriptions are "unlimited" within the EEA, but I actually have high caps when roaming.
Oh, I almost forgot: I'm not used to locked SIM cards, whereas this seems usual in the USA. This might limit your choices in Europe, and I'm under the impression that Vodaphone is among the expensive providers here.

Hi, I'll be going to Ireland later this year. I have a cellular mini iPad and want to get a SIM card for it that will be good in Ireland. My provider is Verizon. I think their European counterpart is Vodaphone. So would I get a sim card through Verizon or wait til I get to the airport in Ireland to buy a sim card there? I'll also be wanting to buy a sim card for a phone I use in Europe. Would I buy the same type of sim card for both? Thank you. Joyce Keay
