Nokia’s first touchscreen phone boasts of a 3.2 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss lens, 3x digital zoom, auto focus and a dual-LED flash. It also has a second backward facing camera. This compares to Apple 3G iPhone’s 2 megapixel camera with no video recording option and no flash support.
Unlike iPhone, Nokia 5800 offers video recording option at up to 640 x 480 pixels and up to 30 fps (frames per second). It offers up to 4x digital video zoom. The phone’s front camera supports video calling feature. Nokia 5800 can support video playback up to 5.2 hours, video recording time up to 3.6 hours and video call time up to 3 hours.
No video recording in 3G iPhone also means no video conferencing. iPhone also lacks optical zoom feature.

Most of the mentioned things are now possible with iPhone. Using iPhone, I can record Videos, send mms, Tether it to my laptop and use internet etc. There are applications available which extends the functionality of iPhone. The best thing about iPhone is its OS, which is a mini MAC OS. Its much more powerful than Symbian and other OSes. And yeah, here are the names of softwares:
1) For MMS- Swirly MMS
2) For Video Recording- iPhone video recorder
3) Tethering iPhone to PC- tinyproxy.
I may be biased as I own iPhone
