You might try T-Mobile. Explain what you need to do and see what they can offer. I use prepaid talk minutes from them and they allow me to pay by the day when I need a data conection.

Subject: [CODE4LIB] Availability of data-enabled temporary SIM cards
Hi all,
Sorry for being semi-off-topic, but obviously you're the right bunch of people to know this...
We're a bunch of Danes visiting the Code4Lib conference in Seattle. But the prospect of a full week being offline on my trusted Android phone is scary. And the price of international data roaming is simply scary.
So I was wondering if any US carriers are selling data-enabled SIM cards, at a price that would be reasonable for a week's usage, and which are also available for visiting tourists?
Any input welcome. Thanks.
Best,
Kåre
