Cheapest SIM card for GSM Quad-Band CELL PHONE (to use in IRELAND)

We'll be in Ireland in a week. We have 2 GSM Quad-band cell phones, and Cingular is our regular cell phone service in the USA.

Flying into Shannon airport. Where can we buy cheap SIM cards in Ireland, so that we can call each other in Ireland when we separate? We will only use a total of about 30 minutes. Don't want to pay a lot.

Thanks! I have followed some on-line discussions but would like up-dated info. Appreciate it.

There are not huge differences but I think Meteor may be slightly cheaper.

The 3 Mobile companies in Ireland are
O2
Meteor
Vodafone.

Check their websites to compare
