Editor's note: The following comes from an Auto Europe press release:

Auto Europe is offering MiFi units with any car rental of three days or longer in the UK, France, Italy and Germany; you only pay $5 per day to access data.   

 This product is the Huawei Mobile WiFi E5331 model that permits connectivity with up to eight WiFi enabled devices up to 30 feet from the portable router via a secure password protected connection. Each unit comes with a user manual, SIM equipped for 3G cellular access in the country of preference, wall and car USB charger and a convenient carrying case. 

The SIM cards are only available for the UK, France, Italy, and Germany (one country per SIM). There is a data limit, but it's different per country and three of the countries are "fair use.”
