I used the An Post card for my last trip to the states. It can be used as an ATM card and a credit card. We found it much cheaper than withdrawing cash from our current account, the fees on that can really add up. If you do a search on the personal finance forum there is a huge thread on it with all the info you could need. It takes about 10-15 mins to sign up for, you need to bring ID into the post office. Any money left over at the end can be withdrawn when you get home. I would definitely use it again if I were going to the states.
