I'm going to be two weeks in Thailand and need a micro-sim for my iPhone (non jail broken). The main use will be data but obviously I will use it for calls and text too.

What are the recommended carriers? Where can I buy the sim? What are the rates?

Is your phone unlocked? If so, no international SIM is going to work in it. – Doc Jan 21 '12 at 17:59

When I got a pay-as-you-go SIM card in Thailand, my operator billed by the minutes used rather than the amount of data transferred; where 'minutes used' is the duration you are connected for online. (So it often made sense for me to download a file or load a page, then turn off data - because typically data connection remains open whenever your phone browser is - and then go back to the browser to read it. I heard however that now some mobile operator are offering data packs too. There are that many (just three major ones), so follow through to their site and see what they have.

If you staying in Bangkok or metropolitans, Truemove-H is the Best for you, due fastest 3G Network and very cheap price plan. but lacked in nationwide coverage.

Best carrier coverage in Thailand is AIS but 3G is a few coverage in nationwide.
