I have an Iphone too, and it seems to be the least shielded device I've ever had (as much as I can't live without it). It is the only device I have that interferes with all my electronics within a few feet whenever it interacts with a cell tower. (I hear a buzz on all my computer speakers).

Was your previous phone GSM-based? That buzz is not specific to iPhones. All GSM phones have it (to a certain degree). Search for 'gsm buzz'.

All PDA phones emit relatively high amounts of radiation.
You can find the radiation level of your phone at the link below. Enter the FCC ID that is located on your phone. The lower SAR, the better. Anything over 1.0 is relatively high and 1.6 is the maximum legal limit. I think the iPhone is around 1.0-1.1.
