Any opinions on short-term data/phone plans in Norway?

I will be traveling abroad this summer and will be spending a good deal of time in Norway. Does anyone have a preferred user service for data/phone calls? A pay-as-you-go sim setup is fine with me....

Re: How do you change the time?

Generally I try to move at the speed of light, or as close as I can... it seems to give me a few extra minutes relative to everyone else (everyone else just seems to be standing still). -T

Re: Pulse Audio battery drain (occationally)

Thanks for the bug link, although I have had this pulseaudio issue both after phone calls, and sometimes where there is no phone call involved at all. That, frankly is the one that troubles me more....

Re: N900 and the size of it !

I can say that compared to my E63, it is actually bigger in a better way. It feels really comfortable to talk on, and you can prop it with your shoulder without it wanting to take off, but on the...
