O2, the carrier that brought the iPhone to the United Kingdom last fall, today announced it would do the same for Ireland a couple of weeks from now, on March 14th. It'll offer the 16GB model for €499 and the 8GB edition €399. There will be three monthly service plans available to iPhone customers on the Emerald Isle, all of which includes 1GB of data usage: The first plan offers 175 voice minutes and 100 text messages for €45; the second includes 350 minutes and 150 text messages for €65; and the third bumps that up to 750 minutes and 250 text messages for €100.
