I have an LG 8300 and I am able to play mp3s on it... Why would the Chocolate be considered the first VCast phone to play mp3 without converting when it can be done on LG 8300???

the chocolate comes out of the box this way, no hacking needed. The 8100/8300 are not advertised or sold as mp3 players, only vcast music, you must go in and change settings around to get it to work properly since Verizon does not technically support ...
