A lot of it is coverage. I could pay substantially less if I was willing to go with a worse network. How much would it cost you for a plan that covered all of Europe?

Ah, yes, EU-wide coverage is a problem - you need to get SIMs for every country you visit if you want the lowest rate.

Thankfully, prepaid SIMs with low data prices are very common everywhere, but it certainly would be convenient if you could use one everywhere.

As it is, calls and SMS on roaming are cheap, but data is still very expensive.

I don't think there's any kind of unlimited plan for the entire EU, not to mention other European countries.

With data? I haven't seen any plan that allows more than 100-200 MB of data (which is ridiculously low) on roaming without additional charges...
