Buying a Mifi in Bamberg?

Sounds like you're enjoying yourself - great!

I don't know about MIFI (never actually heard of it!) but for a surfstick, I've found the cheapest solution to broadband problems is at Tchibo (there is a branch in the Grunmarkt, right side heading from Schlenklerla to Spezial!).  Much cheaper than phone companies, etc.  

I've always found the Tchibo staff to be extremely helpful and most charming, although, it should be said that, as their main business is selling coffee and handbags, they don't generally know much about surfsticks and the like.  But they go out of their way to be helpful (you could read my report of a visit to the Grunmarkt branch last April in this Forum).

One bit of advice, if you do think about trying them, avoid lunchtimes as they get very busy!
