Bear with me, I'm a bit thick. What does such a card do? I mean, my 
phone does GPRS. Does the card just give you a GPRS connection to the 
internet without having a phone involved? I had no idea that such a 
useful thing existed; presumably there is a monthly subscription to own 
one? If I were needing the same thing, I'd probably just use my phone as 
a GPRS modem via BlueTooth, I think (I've successfully done it talking 
to my phone via IR before).
