the cheapest solution would be to use a local provider i.e. a French sim, the reason being your provider will charge roaming rates while abroad if they even support 3g on those networks. If any of them offer cheap sims and pay as you go broadband it'd work out considerably cheaper.

also you may get better answers here, it's the forum for midband.
