what do you need it for? Verizon doesn't let you customize your phone via usb cable.

get it on ebay for around 7 bucks shipped. radioshack is usually 20+ and verizon sells cables for 40+. i use bitpim. I think the cables for the vx8100/8000/7000/6100 are the same

Oh, you just need Mobile Phone Tools and a data cable for that phone, no need to hack it. Its only the Verizon Motorola phones that need to be hacked.

you can get the data cable on ebay for cheap. Mobile Phone Tools is a little harder to come by. I think it costs about $50 or so.
