Buying iPad SIM card in Dublin

Does anyone know where I can buy a SIM card for my iPad in Dublin? Is it a hassle to do this and what is the approximate cost?

Is your iPad unlocked to accept sims not from your existing provider?

Thanks for the help and links. The iPad sim is unlocked as opposed to the iPhone which is locked. I can buy a 30-day international data roaming package from AT & T for $30 or $60 depending on how many mgbs I want. Does this seem to make more sense than getting the card that will work in Ireland? All the hotels we're staying at have wifi in the lobby or lounge but not in the rooms.
