My wife just got an E815 from Verizon. She had a V710 that they took back. The E815 is okay. I really resent how Verizon has locked up their phones so that you can't do anything to them even if it's just uploading pictures or ringtones. There are ways around it but it's at the risk of frying your phone. I'm not skilled enough in the art of cellphone hacking to try.

The E815 is pretty good but if it's like the V710, the battery does not last long. The battery in my wife's V710 stop taking a charge despite taking care of it. The software on the E815 is better than the Razr because it has better voice dialing options like digit dialing and voice tags for all entries. It sounds like you should get the Razr based purely on your desire to have a slim phone. That is the number one selling point for me. I have the Razr and like it's form factor the best.
