Mobile VOIP in Greece

Have a read of the Greece HSPA thread (stick at the top of this board), also the Greece GPRS thread.

Basically, I don't think there's a sensible PAYG data plan any more. You're stuck paying 12000EUR/GB, or using a WAP proxy.

The best option, if it works, would be to take out a Wind 1 contract (no monthly fee), add a data bundle to it (120MB for EUR8 per month), then cancel the bundle when you're done.

As I haven't managed to get a non-proxied data connection I haven't tried VOIP. Outside major cities 3G reception is usually poor (lack of sites plus lots of reinforced concrete) so I'd be surprised if it works.
