Quick New Phone Question

New phone being ordered today, the options I am considering are:

LG CF360
http://www.amazon.com/LG-CF360-Phone.../dp/B001PKTRVM
and
Nokia 6650
http://www.amazon.com/Nokia-6650-Pho...6284595&sr=1-1

The nokia runs S60 so it has some smartphone action going on although I wont really use those features much (no data plan/work blackberry has more ram/screen). Both are 3G. As far as I can tell, both have USB connection but only the LG has usb charging which is somethign I like. The nokia states 4hours talk while the LG and most other phones only state 3 hours...I like battery. I am interested in an S60 phone but I have seen reports that the interface is clunky and a lot of the S60 stuff doesnt work due to out of memory errors and AT&T lockdown

Neither phone is perfect but I dont haev much choice and I have to decide today

The only decent AT&T branded Nokia is the E71x IMHO. It has battery life in spades.

I'm less worried about full on internet features as I forsee having a work blackberry (I have one now although tomorrow is my lest day...whatever I do next will probably give me one)

I just took a break and walked over to an AT&T store...

The nokia looked decent although I preferred some elements of the LG. The USB charger is a big thing for me... I did a little more research though and it looks like the LG is impossible to sync...usually I use isync to keep everything in check (sometimes missing sync is needed instead). LG phones seem to be unsupported in general and BitPim only supports verizon phones it seems...

Is it worth losing USB charging? Any other good free/cheap options in a compact/thin package on AT&T?
