I had a GSM V9. With regards to battery life, I was very pleased in 3G
mode, but only moderately impressed in GSM mode. Both were better then
my V3, which is all I really asked.
Sound quality, especially the noise cancellation, was simply amazing,
and I'd highly recommend the V9 across the board.
That being said, I switched over to a HTC 8925/AT&T TILT instead.
