Seems you both have older version of firmware. Try updating firmware and then check for options.

i am not happy at all from xpress music 5800.
no secondary camera
no secondary camera in option menu

Yup I also think the same that Xpress music 5800 is not that good as it is advertised.

ppl who are not able to find secondary camera option should update their firmware and try.

install ovi suite on yr pc from the accompaying CD. Then connect yr phone with computer and check for the latest firmware and update. That should work.
To activate secondary camera, just turn on yr camera, and enter options. There should be "secondary camera". Click it and done!
However, it's not really useful except to see yrself on the screen.
