That's what I thought, but I wasn't sure. However, if he had power over the Three, how were they hidden from him in the Second Age? Actually, I guess it would work the same as the One. Sauron and the Nazgul knew exactly where the Ring was when someone actually used ut, so if someone actually tried to use the one of the Three, instead of just hiding them, he would probably know where they were and, as you said, have power over them.

Ahh, that clears that up.
