Im cross posting this from the Verizon-LG forum (i know, bad form, but I believe some of you here may want this software (freeware)

Recently I purchased a new cell phone, a LG VX8100. This nice phone has among other features a MP3 player. However it does not support playlists. Since I have created tapes, cds and playlists for the past 20+ years I expect to hear songs in a specific order. So I created this application to allow me to move songs onto my 8100 and rename the MP3 with a 3 digit numeric prefix. Since the 8100 plays songs in the alpha order this solves this problem.

This is beta software, so please be aware that there may be issues. If you have any problem or request please contact me at James Rose

New features for Beta 2.
* Allow creation of WinAMP Playlists
* Will not transfer files that are not an MP3
* Option to change file name to Song Name only. This is becuase of the limited space to display names on the VX8100. The song name is read from the MP3-Tag, if there is no tag then the file name is used. * Cleaner User Interface
* Found and fixed a few bugs

Nope. It cannot set the phone to do ANYTHING. It simply transfers the files to the phone with a 3 charactor numeric prefix so that the VX8100 plays the songs in the order they are in the playlist.

However the VX8100 already has a Shuffle feature, so you dont need my app for that.
