I'm getting a new phone this week, and I don't want a smartphone so I've narrowed my options to either the Samsung Brightside or Cosmos 2. (Verizon)

All I use my phone for is calls and texts (I have the Samsung Intensity 2 now, and it works for me just fine). The Brightside is a hundred dollars after the rebate, and the Cosmos is free. The only reason I'm considering the Brightside really is because of it's superior camera, and the fact that it has video recording capabilities which I was thinking would be nice for taking pics and videos of the baby, so that I don't have to carry my digital camera around with me everywhere.

Anyways, what would you suggest? Would you pay the extra hundred dollars and just get the better one? Just interested in some opinions.
