Summary: Dx3900 - Love it!
Review: Had this camera for a few years now and I ABSOLUTELY love it.
I've never had problems with it and the quality of the photos I take are awesome. I use my camera to take photos that I upload to my blog (on line journal).
The only down side in my opinion I see, the batteries go fast, but I assume thats any camera. The plus side is the fact you can use your double AA batteries or rechargeable ones. So if your recharageables are not charged you can just go to the store and buy regular batteries.
If you're looking to take professional photos I suggest going with a Canon rebel or any of the more expensive professional cameras out there. For a beginner this camera is awesome. This digital camera is very easy to use, even my husband who is not technically savvy finds it easy to use. You can switch within the camera to take color, black and white, or sephia tone. You can internally mess with the F stops, shutter speed, etc...it gives a lot of good options to be creative. Its an easy point and shoot.
I absolutely love this camera. Too bad some folks here seen to have had some bad experience with it. :( On the same note there are a lot of good reviews here for this camera. With anything shop around and see what's out there. :)

Summary: Avoid Kodak
Review: I purchased a DX 3900 in June 2002. By November, I had to send it in to have the status lcd board replaced. By July 2003, the lens cap was no longer retracting, but by then it was off warranty. The support was not very helpful either. Overall, my experience was that this was a poor quality product, and I wouldn't purchase any of their products.

Summary: Easy to use, great pictures
Review: I have found this camera with the dock easy to use and capable of taking great pictures. It has not disappointed. The pictures are easy to download into my computer for use with my deskjet printer and even easier to use the memorary card for great 4X6 photos on my photosmart printer. A wonderful first experience with digital photography.

Summary: DX3900
Review: I have some ability with computers and about the same with cameras. This was exactly what I hoped for: I can take quick photos inside and out, dock the thing, transfer to the software with one touch, modify the photos, and email to grandpa/granma. It will make me get DSL service to speed the emails on their way.Photos are sharp and the detail is just fine or better. I got a 128 storage card from my son for XMAS, and it is terrific. Overall battery life seems fine and the camera traveled to and from Florida easily. Software installation went fine, AFTER I got smart and turned off the Norton junk beforehand. I have 2000 Pro. Only quibble: got to use their dock. On the other hand: seamless activity for the everyday user.

Summary: Poor long term performance
Review: When I first got my Kodak DX3900 camera, I was pretty happy. Yes, the memory card is too small, but otherwise it seemed to have all of the features I was looking for. The first few photos looked pretty good as well. However, with continued use, the camera simply doesn't perform. After taking only about 30 photos, the camera now refuses to take any more photos, and those last few photos were out of focus and either over or under exposed. Changing batteries helps for a short while, but even using CRV3 lithium batteries rather than AA's, after a very short while the camera refusues to perform other than to let you see the few photos you've already taken. I'm not aware of other cameras that consume battery power like this, so my plan is to get rid of this camera and buy a new one soon.
