yesss! uses the Orange network (ex One), HSPA2100 and GSM1800. 3G coverage in Innsbruck is spotty in buildings, but thier 2G is just fine.
Why not unlock your modem at dc-unlocker? Last time I checked it was EUR10 and the E1550 is supported.
As for the Hofer stores in Innsbruck, the one by the train station, on Museumstraße 14, always seems to be out of stock on SIM cards. They have the refills, but no SIMs. The one across the river, on Mitterweg 18 is always fully stocked.
