The cell infoformation you are mentioning is totally dependant on what is the nearest cell that is giving you your signal... it can be 2 or 3 suburbs away in my experience and certainly not usable for navigation.
I can't help with the P800 info you request but I can thoroughly recommend the
Garmin Street Pilot III with the
City Navigator Australia which I find to be an excellent product.

checkout wayfinder.com - I use the service since a month back and it is simply put GREAT! The service covers Europe and soon also the US. I'm not sure about Australia though...
Here:s an extract from the Wayfinder web page:
"The Wayfinder navigation system is built on your P800, communicating with a small Bluetooth GPS unit that determines your current position. By simply entering the destination in your phone, a route will be calculated and downloaded from the Wayfinder-server over existing 2G GSM/GPRS as well as future 3G networks. The service is operator independent. The powerful Internet-based Wayfinder Server stores comprehensive maps, points of interest, company information, and real-time traffic information."
