I guess the best answer to your question would be which carrier provides the best coverage since this will be your only phone. I had a 7130e and had great voice quality on it. The EVDO was fast, but unless you do huge amounts of surfing, I didn't think the speed was fast enough to justify me paying $45 a month for VZW unlimted BB plan.
I just switched to the 8100 and like it so far from what I've been able to do with it, which isn't too much yet. I had my number ported from VZW, and it still hasn't come over to the new phone yet, so I have no real time usage with it yet.
Basically... I would look at what kind of coverage you have and which one provides the most features that you will actually have a need for.
Hope I was a little healpful.
