None, unless you're going to other ****ries. Here in the USA we use the 850MHz and 1900MHz. The rest of the world uses 900MHz and 1800MHz. I'd say get the Nokia 6682. 😉

Some oversea countries use GSM 900. If you have a phone that doesn't have 900, and you go to a country that only uses 900, your phone won't work.

If you travel, check gsmworld.com to see if you'll need the 900.

Hope this helped.
