Going CRAZY!!! (LG8100 vs. Moto E815)

Ok I understand that the ongoing debate between these two phones has become more than nauseating for some, but in the past week, I have trialed the LG, then the Moto, which I have at the moment. Here are my thoughts on both:

LG8100: I love the look of this phone if you want something fun. I personally think the colored lights on the outside are really neat, the screen on the front is unique, and the images inside are crisp and clear. I like the easy to use menus and the way they look as well as the way they are set up. At first glance, this phone is top notch. This is why I chose it to begin with.
I toyed around with the phone, made some calls, set up some personalization, etc... I was ok with everything about it. That night I cha...

what bluetooth headset were you using? I fist got a mo850 headset for my 8100 and it sucked, then i switched to a different king and now have little trouble. Plus did the lg have the new software verison 4? The camera delay is not as bad with that version. When i had verison one the delay was awful, but after the update it was much better.

I have the Moto HS850 and don't have a problem. The only time I get static is when I hang up the phone using the button on the side of the headset. I get static then, but only once in a while.

I have a Moto V710 and use the black and silver bluetooth (can't remember model #). The only problem I ever have is with the Voice Recognition, but I think that is the handset and not the headset. Sometimes when I press the button on the bluetooth, the lady comes on, I say "Name D.." I don't get the rest out because she is already saying "Command Not Recognized". Or better yet, I get the Name Dial out and she says, "please say a name"...Not even a second goes by and she says, "name not recognized". However, this only happens if my phone has been left on for days. I power the phone off and back on and don't have the problem.

I, too, am trying to make this decision for when my NE2 comes up in 2 weeks. I'm leaning towards the LG for its cheaper miniSD, compatibility with my wife's vx7000 charger/cable, and the ability to "hack" it in the same way as the vx6000. I currently often use free WAP, DUN, occasional GPS, and resetting GIN (unlimited free trials). All of these I can do on my wife's vx7000, so I suspect the 8100 would carryover as well. I'm not sure if a hack exists for free WAP, GPS, or resetting GIN for the e815, however.
