VX7000, VX8000 & V710 Oh my. What to do?

This is driving me nuts. After reading all the specs on each of these phones, I am so confused.

If I have the following things correct,

Weight: V710 is the heaviest.

Size: The 7000 is the smallest out of the three.

Battery life: The 8000 has the poorest standby time.

Display: all pretty close.

Bluetooth & Expansion card: V710 only.

Speaker phone: 8000 & V710

Analog: V710 only.

I would really like a speaker on my phone but I don't have one now. Big deal? Not sure.

Really like to have analog as well.

Don't care about Bluetooth or Expansion card at all at this time.

Like the idea of the Moto with Analog but have heard some very bad things about Motorola

So unless anyone here can give me a good reason not ...

One of the best features of the v710 is the voice dialing...its so precise and clear..works all the time even on speaker phone...have tried a blue tooth headset before?...if not check out motorola's web site for the demonstration...once u wear it u wont take it off...its very convenient...

its hard to decide. if you want the phone for business to use as a tool not a toy, get the Moto v710. Bluetooth is awesome for driving with and is more safe than driving holding the phone up to your ear (which is illegal in New York) and the bluetooth is safer than holding the phone close to your ear for speakerphone.

If you want it for fun to use as a toy, get the LG VX7k. Its got the swivle cam on the hindges of the phonbe so u can aim it at yourself + 4096 color external LCD. Even though the LG VX8k has a better external screen, it doesnt have the swivle cam on the hindges. THe VX8k is really ugly and has the extendable antenna (which i think is a pain in the a$$ and it always bends) The VX8k will probably be a lot of money bec...

Is the cam photo quality decent on the VX7000? And/or will the photo quality of the V710 greatly exceed the 7000?

Also, I see the 710 doesn't have voice notes, which seems odd, and is a little disappointing.

Someone on here got the answer right to this question (my opinion). While the megapixels is one measurement, the quality of the lens is really a better measurement. Can't really tell you how this is done (camera geeks, feel free to jump in here).

From my experience, I can tell you I wouldn't use this camera for my travel photos or really any photo opportunity that I knew about in advance. I would take my regular digital camera, of course. However, it takes decent pictures and is great for the occasional target of opportunity shot. The video is really nice to have for the same reason. I can compare the camera quality to the Samsung A790: it is about the same but I would lean toward the LG having a better camera from the pics I've ta...
