Looking for new phone. Input please!!

Well its time for us to upgrade our phones and would like some advice. We currently have LG 6100's which have been great phones. Some of the things I would like in a new phone are: Camera, Navigation, Good sound and signal quality, a loud ringer, Speakerphone, an outside display that is preferably visible at all times. Seems many of the outside disaplys go black after a few seconds. I work in a plant and its rather noisy in there and with the job I do I cant carry it so I set it on the shelf and its nice to see if I have any txts or msgs waiting without having to pick up the phone. These are the main things we would like in a new phone. We have been eyeing the LG 8300 but still not really sure what to go with. Any help anyone could give me would be great! Thanks!

Would also like bluetooth and definitely reliability.

I would either go with the 8300 or the 8600 (choc flip phone) I really like the way the 8600 looks over the 8300.

Those are both pretty sweet phones but is there a way I can tell if I have a text or message waiting with the phone closed? Basicly meaning does it show up on the outside screen even after it has been awhile?

The "message waiting indicator" feature appears on the outside screen as well as the inside screen.
