e815 vs. vx8100 .... need help choosing!!
I just switched to verizon from sprint this past weekend due to better service in my area. I am trying to decide on a new phone and currently have the e815. Size is a huge issue for me.

5) 815 : you can play mp3 music while in the 8100 you cannot
those are some of the major ones I find useful. But in turn it is all up to you. Hope ...
