Sony Ericsson just announced a GPS enabled walkman phone called W760. W760 supports HSDPA and Quad-band EDGE networks, has built-in speaker and FM radio antenna, 3.2MP digital camera, and comes with 1GB Memory Stick which can store about 900 songs.
Sony Ericsson paired up with Wayfinder Navigator to provide driving directions to their users but unfortunately it requires a subscription.
