I don't take photography as seriously as yourself - I've seen some of the awesome shots you've come up with and that's what they are - awesome. But this is an example:

Took this with a SE K800i (it's the back of Torchwood HQ ) I'm not a photography buff but if I see something I think will look good on camera then I want something I can rely on to make it look good. I don't want to be carrying a camera AND a phone around with me so any phone I have will need to be able to come up with something good.

I haven't seen anything from the iPhone to suggest it meets that criteria. As has been mentioned if a camera phone is not your thing then it doesn't matter obviously. But I know there is a mass-market of people who share my view.
