I had an iPhone 3S with Orange and when the contract was up, tried to negotiate a price so the down payment was the same as Three offered. I was told to go to Three (in as many words).
Three offered unlimited downloads and tethering is no additional fee. Useful when the broadband connection fails and you can still work from home albeit reduced capacity!
So apart from just about double minutes and unlimited downloads for the same monthly price, the downpayment was less than half price of Orange.

Network - I've actually found that Three were better around my area (and on the train journey to London) where Virgin Mobile and Orange always had a black spot.
I'll probably stay with Three when this contract is up.
