If you want to travel, iPhoneTrip.com do something like that where you just have the one SIM. Keep in mind you pay a small premium for them taking care of that all for you though, as opposed to doing it yourself. Alternatively, I think that XT do $10 for unlimited mobile roaming data: http://www.telecomroaming.co.nz/
