Vodafone Ireland - GPRS Packages for PAYG?

Hello-
I'll be traveling to Ireland in the near future. I'd like to pick up a prepaid/PAYG SIM at the airport. I'm going to need GPRS access. I'd like to pick up one of the bundles (pricing here - http://vodafone.ie/dataservices/gprs/prices/index.jsp), but I'm not sure if you can get this on the prepaid service (it looks like monthly-only).

Anyone know if packages can be added to PAYG sims? Thanks.

According to this page, it looks like you can get GPRS with prepaid (look under Pricing Information):

Have you decided Vodafone is the best plan? I too, will be going to Ireland too, but I have just started looking into prepaid options.

No, I've discussed this on another forum. I'm going to roam with Cingular when I get to the airport and pick up a Meteor SIM. Meteor is 5 EUR/MB -- much cheaper than Vodafone. Cingular's GPRS roaming is ~1.4c EUR per kB -- still cheaper than Vodafone.
