iPhone doesn't have built in sat nav as such, google maps yes, with directions but not true turn by turn guidence. 3gs does do photos and movies
though.
I'm a bit biased as I own one but the 3gs has exceeded my expectations by quite a way. Still has a few little glitches but most are being
sorted.

Have a look at the sony ericsson C905. I've had a couple of smart phones with all sorts of stuff on them that I never used.
When I came to renew mine I decided the things I wanted were a phone and a decent quality camera (which I use a fair bit).
The C905 has 8.1MP cybershot camera with xenon flash, smile recognition etc etc. It's a cracking piece of kit.
Although the screen's not as big as i-phone or N37 it does well for internet speed etc. The N37 reviews are poor but it's 'Horses
for courses' really depending what you want it to do well.

a crackberry for me! (8900)
I am now completely addicted to it - it looks good imo, and is hands down the best for email - i often post on here with it and receive notifications
of replies, so I can post very easily from the garage. The GPS is amazingly handy too. Zillions of USEFUL apps on it.

You bunch of pansies!
My phone calls people, does messages, and takes half decent pictures when some tool crashes into you.
Mind you I'm getting into pansy territory myself cos I can now get it to play music through my car stereo 
Sony W595, does what you need it to do, cos do you trust Nokia to direct you?

Iv just got a nokia 5800 excellent phone. I put Garmin sat nav on it for free and it works really well. easy to use photos are very good.
I was going to get an N97 but had a play with one and didnt like it.

Another vote for the nokia 5800. It has some good applications, never had it freeze or play up like the i-phone. The GPS in it is okay but if you
want to do performance testing using the application Racechrono its can be inaccurate, but you can buy a good GPS reciever for around £30 and
bluetooth it with the phone.

iPhone is the way to go. Nothing else even compares to it, and anyone that tells you otherwise obviously hasn't used one.
Go into an O2 shop and have a good play with one. You'll be converted!

If it were me, I'd go for the iphone 'cos I use the internet quite a lot, as for the Sony C905, there have been a lot of problems with the
slider and the 'C' key breaking. The Nokia 5800 is a nice phone, but lacking slightly in apps. i don't like the N97, but for a few
quid less, the N86 is brilliant and has just won the award for best camera on a phone. (and it has an OLED screen for the geeks).
I've got the slightly older N85 and the sat nav is excellent, came with an 8Gb SD card as standard and I love it. It is also an Ngage gaming
machine....what more do you want!!
Anything with a touch screen is a bit iffy really (unless it's an iphone) as they don't seem very accurate.
All IMO of course...
