Movistar seems to be the best network by a long way - certainly up in the mountains here Orange is non-existant for miles and Vodafone is not much better.

If you *can* get Orange, though, they have a good deal on International calls - a 5 euro card gets you 100 minutes of calls back to UK landlines.

Vodafone has a deal on Pay as you go where you talk for 60 mins and pay for one to other vodafones and Spanish landlines.
In the phones menu setup look for Idiomas, in there you can change the language.
I found their network cover better than Movistar around here.
