This is quite interesting, how does getting one work?  Do most shops
carry them?  And can it be combined with voice/SMS operation?

Please bear with me, I looked over the site, but as I don't know any
German the details are elusive (And putting faith in google translate
for monetary related items is not something I enjoy).

I know that when I was in Italy, I could get a SIM with cash and a
passport, is it similar in DE or do I need a local credit card?

Kind regards,
