There's not much data info for Vodaphone & O2 but I assume they are the more established carrier and cover well if 3G isn't available in an area, it switches to Edge, one would think at least.

What would you recommend?
3 is fine in the main cities (Dublin, Cork, Limerick & Galway) but gets a bit weak IMO in the West and North West.

If you're staying in Dublin 3 is as good as the others.
