Does anyone know if the Motorola V551 and the V557 can use the same data
cable? They appear to be the exact same phone.

Yes they use the same data cable. The V557 is an updated version of
the V551. Adding the streaming media and a slight change of color on
the outer cover from blue to gray.

Great, so I was considering this, perhaps the data software can be used on
both phones?

I order alot from cutepcs but they only have things for the V551.

That is very expensive for the data cable and software.
You can get it on Ebay for less then half of that.

www.gomadic.com $17 or so

the V557 shown is the wrong pic and different cable number than the
V551, I think that's just a mistake. best to call them for correct
cable part number.

The software will work on the V557 (although an on-line update may be
required). Try http://shopoem.com for a better price.
