ok here's the tough question assuming 4 gb ram but might upgrade down the line.
How much better off will I be? What one is better for me?
choice A: 1st generation Intel® Core™ i5-520M (2.40GHz base; 2.93GHz Max Turbo, 3MB Cache) (benchmark 2356)
or choice B: 2nd generation Sandy Intel Core i3-2310m, 2.10 GHz processor - (benchmark 2708)
The laptops I'm looking at are similar in price

Either will work well. Depends on the price really. If you can get the i5 with a faster hard drive, dedicated graphics card, or more memory for the same price as the i3 then I would go with that.
