You might try this link. I'm traveling to Germany this summer and will be checking them out as well. I have no desire to use my iPhone for the rates AT&T would charge!

I think they have prepaid phones in europe you can buy.

Personally I have a tri band world phone from T Mobile and it works in 90 countries around the world. I use it all the time in Australia or NZ when I travel there. Coverage is excellent and call quality is excellent. Per minute charges are expensive but people can still reach me overseas if need be and vice versa. I think my phone if I use it in Europe is about 40 cents a minute.
