LG VX-8500 Chocolate
Bitpim - will my VX8100 data cable work with the Chocolate or do I need Music Essentials kit??
I am seriously considering getting the Chocolate, and currently have the VX8100. I use the same data cable for my 8100 and my hubby's 9800, and transfer ringtones etc with Bitpim. Will the same data cable work for the Chocolate?

The port for your data cable is different than the Choclate. So you would need a new cable.
The music essentials kit inclues a CD with Windows Media Player 10, but you can download this for free from the Verizon Wireless site. WMP10 allows you to sync music (via your data cable) and also access Verizon's Music store for downloading music.
Music essentials kit (in addition to the data cable/cd) also includes stereo earbuds that plug directly into your chocolate. When you purchase the phone, it comes with an adaptor if you have an 'older' pair of earbuds with the 2.5 jack.
Your bluetooth headset will work, however I would highly recommend the Motorola stereo bluetooth headset (820 = may be the model number). The sound is incredi...

If anyone needs the Music Essentials Kit here is the real one that will work with the chocolate without the cheap headphones - pretty good price considering you are getting the one made/sold by LG/Verizon: (Verizon charges about $30 plus sales tax)
