The web sites list the coverage pattern...for the most part the 3g coverage of the major providers pretty much is the same as their regular (2g?) coverage....I know I researched this very thoroughly and ultimate went with T Mobile UK for a stick modem and the coverage, at least in London, is okay although I've read T Mobile UK sucks in many areas outside London but it was the simplest for me and it worked...it also worked in several Scottish cities giving me adequate internet service (although of course I'm used to the lightning fast internet service I get a home)....unfortunately my one complaint about the UK is that free wifi is not nearly universal in hotels...it almost seems non existant unlike say Ireland where every single hotel I stayed in had it!
