What is the difference between these lenses?

I have a Nikon d5000 and I really want to buy a zoom lens. I'm wanting to get a 55-300mm… I found two that are the same length, but they have different letters and numbers. One is way cheaper, but I don't know what the difference is.

One is Nikon 70-300mm f/4-5.6G AF Nikkor SLR Camera Lens $164

And the other one is Nikon 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR AF-S DX Nikkor Zoom Lens for Nikon Digital SLR $350

Please Help ME! I don't know what the difference is.

You should read closely the details, features, and editorial reviews from the manufacturer of both to see what is the difference.
