From: Ted Perlman on 16 Dec 2009 16:59 Mine is a 3800 and it's great, so I'm sure the 3900 is just as great but with a few more features. The GPS is worth the price of the phone alone. Just make sure you get the 16gb memory card to replace the 1gb card that comes with the phone.That turns the phone into a mini iPod without Apple's bullshit. -- Regards, Ted Perlman www.tedperlman.com www.myspace.com/tedperlman www.facebook.com/ted.perlman
