Hi,
That really depends on where you will be working. I work away from home a lot and have tried a few of the dongles around the country.
I found that voda struggled to get GPRS speeds in most of the places that i tried it (but that was about 6 months ago so may be different now).
I currently have a 3 dongle which is fine most of the time. It does seem to struggle speed wise when in the hotel room. Sometimes you have to have the dongle right next to the window to get a decent signal.
I have previously used T mobiles data card which was really good, but the price didnt compare favourably to the dongles which i why i changed.
Best bet is to have a look at the networks website for coverage details in the areas you will be working.

Depends on the coverage of the network you choose really.
3 Network do a PAYG option for a £100 which includes a amount of data per month. Might be worth having a go at that
