3G laptop - tether a 3G phone or use a USB 3G stick devise ?

Hi

I am planning on getting a Netbook to travel with this year ,
I would like to set-up 3G in the USA and also be able to do the same in Europe or Australia.

So will it work better to tether it with a 3G phone by a USB cable,
or get a USB 3G stick and use that ?

I have cell phones for both GSM systems- USA and the rest of the world,
I just do not know if the reception would be better with the 3G phone or 3G USB stick,
its not a problem for me if I end up dragging an extra phone + charger around if it will get me better service,

Thanks for your advise,
