Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Smartphone

$361.00 Est. at Amazon

from Shane, www.newegg.com
nokia's upper-echelon phones, but then they'd be locked-down and stripped of basic functionality in order to make you dependent on pay-for services like a-gps.don't think twice about buying the 5800!
from www.amazon.com
it's loaded with extra features and functionality like the built-in gps receiver which means it works even when you are out of cell phone coverage although it does take a little longer to initially
from www.amazon.com
for my purposes, mostly music, appointments and alarms, and the phone, it is stable with just 1 exception when the battery overheated while i was talking on the phone and connected to my wi-fi.
from www.amazon.com
it is very easy to load music files into the phone either via usb transfer mode (fast) or by bluetooth.
from www.amazon.com
it offers an option to reduce the file size prior to downloading the music to the phone but it seems to greatly reduce the sound quality of the tracks, so i no longer use it.

Nokia E71 Cell Phone

$393.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
the only thing i can mark this phone down on is the camera and the gps, but i am not going to mark it down any on the ratings.
from www.amazon.com
it has tons of great features but i really like google maps/gps with it.
from www.amazon.com
i use my phone for 1-2 hours of phone calls, an hour of email, and maybe a little web and gps thrown in.

it works perfectly and best of all its free.also google maps offers full gps support with trip planning,routes and map guidance for free as well (except for your paid network data stream of

Nokia E63 Cell Phone

$268.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i looked at the e71 but since i am on t-mobile and already have an external gps i opted against it (although i still think it is a much nicer phone!).
from www.amazon.com
*the lack of gps sucks but it does include nokia maps so you can look up mapquest directions directly on your phone without internet.
from www.amazon.com
no gps, but it will use the cell phone towers to approximate where you are within 300 feet, so google maps and other map applications will still know generally where you are.
from www.amazon.com
* "virtual gps" with google maps - if you purchase this phone, i'd definitely download google maps.
from www.amazon.com
this phone lacks gps, but a-gps through google maps is adequate for most.

music and video quality is awesome.

gps i tried using but failed to use since it doesn't go beyond initial earth rotating screen so can't write about it now.

media sound using earbuds is also excellent, nokia earbuds offer less volume than regular earbuds but i think it's more a health restriction than a technical isuue so if you wanna hear your music

HTC G1 Smartphone

from www.amazon.com
i don't listen to music on my phone - i have my ipod for that, and w/ 50 gb of music/moives on it, no phone currently can replace it.
from www.amazon.com
my biggest complaint was how long it took the gps to figure out where i am, even with cell tower hints.
from www.amazon.com
assuming i remembered to plug it in before i went to bed, it'll last the whole day, even when using it as a music player during the commute.
from www.amazon.com
i don't need my ipod because i store my music in it and can also listen to imeem through it.
from www.amazon.com
with shazam, my g1 will listen to music playing in a restaurant or anywhere else and then tell me the name of the song, the name of the artist and where i can purchase it.

i don't really use it for music so i can't honestly say how good it is.

phone has a lot of promise (turn-by-turn gps works pretty well, nice form factor, solid build quality...), but the os is not as polished as it should be for a $400+ smartphone.
