In terms of:
Coverage
Speed
Cost
Video Calling ?

You need to be a little bit more specific

yes what skearon said
what are you looking at 3G for?
first of all O2's 3G service is kind of up and running in that its there but there not actually using it on phones yet (maybe someone else can explain that better)
also 3 should be considered as they are one of the main competitors in Ireland's 3G market

coverage: 3 has over 85% of the population covered with 3G more than any other netork
Speed:sorry i don't know who has the fastest speed i was under the opinion that 3G on the phones were all the same speed but then i hear people using it on computers using a data cards with say vodafone saying theres is a 2mb service and saying O2 is 5mb (those figures are made up so dont flame me)
Cost: 3's 3G service is definetely the cheapest but at the moment they dont offer a data card (but i think their releasing one in january)
video calling: ya the three netowrks do it (i think O2 do) its grand to have a laugh but it gets gimmicky very fast and the quality can be a preety poor

they always say this offer is up on the whatever but still have them going (e.g free hour of internet every day was supposed to end months ago)

Not Vodafone anyway.

Vodafone has the best 3G service if you're looking for a mobile data solution, e.g. Vodafone Unlimited Data for €48.99 a month.

However if you want video clips on your mobile, I think 3 are the best out there at the moment. Personally I am not interested in that aspect, as it doesn't help me run my business.

^^ I'd be much happier if 3 updated their content more often
though now that im able to check gmail and stuff im enjoying their 3G service much more lately
