I don't know what all the Black & Decker has (specs and such)....but you usually get what you pay for in tools. I've found Black & Decker tools to have a fairly short life compaired to a good quality tool.
With the Porter Cable you get excellent quality that will last you forever. It is variable speed, so you can start slow and work the speed up. It also is a true random orbit polisher. You won't burn the paint on your car with this.
And, you can change the agressiveness of the pads. I don't know if you can do that with the Black & Decker. Most in expensive polishers have a fixed foam pad.
Also, you can get it cheaper than $130. I got mine for $110 at lowes.
If you're still not sure....try to find someone that has one in your area. Or, buy the one from Target and take it back if you don't like it.
