I'm pretty sure that Syphon was just adding to the various good points against the iPhone.
Let's talk about applications if you don't think any of our previous points are legitimate. Only Apple is able to make programs for the iPhone; making your phone a hostage to Apple.
Other points:
The screen gets smudged.
Its overkill in the phone department.
Price.
Providers.
Keyboard.
Applications.
Storage space.
Battery.
Annoying group of idiots that will flock to you if you own one.
Although the screen is rather smudgy, the screen is bright enough where when looking at it directly, the smudges aren't even noticable.
Overkill in the phone department? Since when was having more a problem? Even if it was, could you explain how it's overkill? It's more than a phone, anyway.
Price for a phone, maybe. Price for what it offers, and how it offers it, it has been proven in this thread that it is not so overly priced. The price has also dropped a bit from release, if that matters to you.
Providers is true, but even then jailbreaking is an option.
Keyboard is just different, I wouldn't call it neccesarilly bad. Definitely has a learning curve, but I think at this point it's better than a lot of phones.
Storage space? Can you find me a phone that has even similar storage space?
Battery life is actually better than competing phones. proof here

I'm not sure how you say that line is irrelevant, it was in response to
Good, the Zune far exceeded the iPod. Thus the Nokia E70 must already far exceed that of the iPhone.
None.
