Funny thing is that my Nokia N73 with the 3 sim in it actually works reasonably well in the same area...
It still roams 40% of the time but I often do get a 3G signal.
My iPhone is with Vodafone. It almost always shows a 3g signal but only one bar. BUT only ever had one call drop out with the iPhone on Voda compared to many drop-outs with the N73 on Three...
Bottom line is I am not complaining about my iPhone or Three's 3g coverage - I'm just reporting what was asked - how is Three's 3g where I am and the answer is it's crap on both my N73 and iPhone, but worse on the iPhone than the N73
FWIW, I am seriously considering Telstra 3G as it seems to me that once you get out in 'the sticks' like Berwick then they are the only ones with coverage
