Another opinion:

I went the same way. My E815 is now re-activated and the V3m sits
in it's box unused. Why? It seems inferior to the E815 in every
way, I like the Razr's thinness but don't like the short battery
life, poorer sound quality and, although I seldom use the camera,
the E815 takes M*U*C*H better pictures.

Ditto, can't see much improvement.

I have, some, not a lot.

The Razr can't hold a candle to the E815, not trying to scare
anybody, just giving my own experience with the two phones.

It's not just the horrid red Verizon UI, that's gone because I
flashed the V3m to the generic Motorola flash and then re-enabled
all the Verizon features along with the necessary seem edits to make
the phone work as it should.

Just one more point, the E815 didn't require a reflash and only
needed two or three seem edits to make everything work.
