They are similar (there is some sort of forking relationship between
the projects). 

I've found gammu suits me better, because it has:
  python bindings (albeit incomplete) so I can script a bit better,
  unicode support,
  some filesystem support (I've never been able to get gnokii to do
  anything sensible with the filesystem on my phone).

Wammu is a front-end for gammu (similar to xgnokii).
