I presume from the mention of Google Navigation, that it does indeed have (A)GPS? You've not mentioned it in your pub-lunch menu.

Screen Res?!
Apple iPhone = 480x320, HTC Touch HD2 = 480x800, Acer Liquid = 480x800.
I'd say "The resolution of 480x800 is up there with the best the smartphone world has to offer and far exceeds that of the iPhone 3GS."
