A bunch of Flipmode's Easy Environments are on sale right now, but most use sky cubes.I know from reading that IRay has a native skydome/skysphere, so I was wondering how well the skycubes work in IRay?

Not real well.
If you want to use an environment like that you need to set it up for Iray, which involves setting all the "sky" surfaces to be emissive objects and other gritty details that I don't really want to examine.
It isn't that hard to do. You simply turn the skydome into an emissive, set the luminance very high, and go from there. There is a bunch of info in the Iray beta threads on this. :)
