Thanks for the reply, Thomas. It's true that I do get some syncing/communication via Bluetooth and that is, in some respect, helpful. It's just so frustrating that I can't get my photos and music to switch. Unfortunately, I use my phone like a type of notebook and take photos of Everything. I don't like to be burdened down though so I don't typically care my camera with me so... I considered getting a different phone but so far have decided to stick with the slim V8 (which I'm having repaired right now). The G1 is too bulky, iPhone is wrong carrier, other phones are either not robust enough or entail data packages that increase my monthly so I'm sticking with the phone for the moment. ...sorry to ramble.
