The Apple iPhone 3GS is apparently capable of capturing HD video. This guide is for iPhone 3GS devices running iOS 4.x firmware. Mike the person responsible for this has made it possible to capture video at 1080x800 @30fps instead of the default which is 640x480. You can follow the instructions posted below and try for yourself.
