We are going to the uk on Tuesday and I will purchase a prepaid Sim so I can 
use maps when we are out and about. There are lots of wireless hot spots and 
most accommodation options will have wireless internet, including family home 
type bed and breakfast places. But for navigating a SIM is necessary. We have 
done this in the UK and in the US.
