Param,
All iPhones are touch screen & have music player / camera built-in.

Also, I haven't seen any who uses iPhone without basic web features (mail / browser etc)

Ok, but they are compatible with PCs right?

I am aware some of them come with 5 Mega pixel camera, but do they come with Sat Nav (GPS) ?

You can't use it without basic web features in the USA. I mean you could choose not to, but its mandatory that you buy the web-unlimited plan for 30 bucks a month.

iPhones come with GPS, yes. The latest iPhone (4) has a 5.0MP camera. The older ones have a 2.0 MP camera. And the iPhones are compatible only with iTunes (except when you just want to copy pictures), both PC and Mac.

It's a cell phone and not a personal computer - how can it be "compatible"?

If you mean whether "some" files (music / pics / video) can be moved around, yes, but not all types.

OTOH, if you asked whether applications that run on PC can also run on iPhone, a big NO. iPhones need their own applications.

I am aware some of them come with 5 Mega pixel camera, but do they come with Sat Nav (GPS) ?

The initial ones had only maps on web but no navigation.

The 3G ones should have navigation (I haven't seen any of my friends / associates use this yet).

App na

What I meant was you can connect to PC using a USB and download images, music.contacts that sort of thing right ?

You mentioned iphones are only compatible with itunes, does that mean iphone will not be compatible for mp3 format

What you say is correct for new phones / connections. "Hand me downs" and such used ones can be used without that extra charge as they accept the sim card and can be used on a traditional subscription.
