Recommendations for SIM with data allowances in Russia

I'm travelling to Russia for a fortnight at the end of September (pleasure not business so I'll be paying out of my own pocket) and contacted T-Mobile to see how much they'd rip me off for using a smart phone.... and yep either - 3Mb for £5, 10Mb for £10 or 50Mb for £30.

So when in a strange foreign city and it would be useful to look at maps, find restaurants etc.it's prohibitively expensive.

So does anyone know of any voice and data SIM providers which will work in Russia and don't want the shirt of my back?

I travel a lot and have unlocked my mobile so that i can switch over to the local network of that country where I stay.It turns economical for me.When I was in Russia I found Megafon network very economical.
