Ok, I JUST received my new PM4500 and love it, but if the 8200 is better -- I still have a little time to exchange. What are the differences? Seems like just camera placement.

Is there a performance difference in Vision, text, browser, etc?? Seems too new for the usual comparisons online.

Thanks!

ok i ordered my 8200 but havent yet received it, and ive spent time reading up on these two phones heres what ive learned:
the 5500 has the blue "elegant" backlight, the 8200 has the green keys, which are ok but you know...

the 5500 also has a button on the side of the phone that enables u to answer a call without opening the phone. wonderful feature that im not sure the 8200 has

also which u probably already know, the 5500 has the video recording capabilities where the 8200 just has a camera with zoom& flash.
the 5500 is slightly bigger but still small compared to other phones like the samsung a600.

i think that the color display is the same quality. oh one more thing...the 5500 has 3.2 hrs for the standard battery and the 8200...

A couple of corrections. The 8200 can be answered without opening the phone. You can also voice dial without opening it.

Additionally, the 8200 is $280 total. So it's $130 after the rebate.

the wm 4500 and the pm 8200 both can do voice dial with the phone closed

there are 3 big differences with the 2 phones

1 the camera. the vm does video and they are placed in diff arias.

2 display the vm 4500 has a larger display the 8200 has the same display size as the 8100 but it is better resolution then the 8100

3 the 8200 has a stupid red light that comes on when the camera is on. (so you can't snap a pic with out sone one knowing)
