You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Personally I used my Blackberry as a tethered modem most of the time. Your carrier will charge you roaming usage, but most carriers have roaming buckets you can purchase to bring down the cost.
The reason I used my own connection rather than the WiFi is I not available everywhere on the ship - not in your room. I enjoyed sitting on my own personal balcony while on the web, not the uncomfortable chair they provide in the WiFi areas.

Since you mentioned GPRS, I assume that you either have T-Mobile or ATT. ATT is going to charge you international rates for data http://www.wireless.att.com/learn/international/roaming/international-roaming.jsp?WT.srch=1. Realize you may well be able to sign up and terminate within 30 days.
Here is T-Moble's data plan

Good luck. It looks like you will be doing GRPS at best. Have you considered getting a smart phone to check email and the like? You are going to have a real hard time surfing the net at that speed.
