I'm going to be in Ireland for about a week. I have an O2 SIM that I can top-up when I get there. I'll mostly be using call-back (my own VoIP server) for voice calls...but I'd love to use mobile broadband if its feasible and affordable. We'll be in a few places (Dublin, Shannon, Cork) and typically hotel internet can be as high as 20 Euro / day ... if I could spend $50 and use my phone (Nokia e61i) as a modem for data, then I'd be happy.

Any thoughts?

You can use the mobile broadband option on 3pay, it's €5.99 for a month, for 100 MB download. The problem is that it can take a few days for it to be activated. You can pick up a sim card on http://www.adverts.ie/showcat.php?cat=14, it's a buyandsell discussion board. I think they are about 15 euros there.
