Hello,

I will be travelling around several cities in Russia this summer for a few weeks, and I need to know what service providers allow UNLIMITED internet access over GPRS. My business is "internet based", so I need to do a lot of data transfer and I need unrestricted access. (ie: I need ftp ability, www, pop3, smtp, etc..)

My phone is already unlocked, so I would like to know what service provider I should purchase from. (I will just buy their SIM card and get a plan, etc..)

Can you help me with any specific service provider recommendations that can do this? ie: Provider name, plan name, price, tips/tricks/gotchas, etc.. any information will be welcome!

Can I use GPRS with their pre-paid plans? If not, is there a way I can get "unlimited" GPRS enabled without a monthly service plan? I am not sure how to get a monthly service plan, since I will only be in Russia for a few weeks...

I am willing to pay up to a few hundred dollars for unlimited GPRS access.

Here are the cities I will be visiting, and where I must have unlimited GPRS:

Moscow
Vladimir
Ivanavo
Alexandrov
Sochi
Pushkin
Red Army City
St. Petersburg
Peterhoff

Thanks for any help!
