The stainless has less grip in the hand, and slides into the pocket easier. It is also a little heavier, or at least feels heavier. That makes the G10 grippier and lighter. 
Serrated vs. plain edge? I like them both, but probably the majority will lean toward the plain edge as it is easier to sharpen, gives a smooth cut on paper and cardboard, etc. But you can do anything with a SE that you can do with a PE, plus the SE rips through fiberous material better, and retains a working edge longer.

There's no such animal as a SS Police 3. As for the differences between a SS Police and a G-10 Police 3: IMHO, the Police 3 is a better slicer, the Police has a more acute "splinter picker" tip, the Police is heavier, the Police 3 has a longer blade and a 50/50 choil. As with the question of serrated vs plain edge, which set of characteristics is "better" will depend on what you're looking for in a knife.
