They may not be selling them but they are certainly supporting the
phone. Or maybe I'm not clear on how you define support.
Fido still even supports the 5190. I just had the firmware upgraded on
one my old 5190s at a fido store a few weeks ago.
Unless you feel the need to be on the "bleeding edge" of technology,
there's nothing wrong with the good old 3390. In fact, you should be
able to easily find them on the used market for around the $40 mark.
I still use a 5190 and a 3390. From my perspective, these things are
"workhorse" phones that can take an amazing amount of abuse. If you
damage it, just get another one.
