Sorry, wasn't sure. The only concerns I have are that if you travel abroad a lot, it is easy to build up a large bill for data comms. Thankfully, you can put the iPhone in Roaming mode, which disables any "push" data facilities (like Push email) and stops the phone automatically checking other email accounts.
Another concern is that (like pretty much any smart phone) the iPhone can go through the battery at a rate of knots. Particularly if you play a lot of music/games/videos. Thankfully, the iPhone will charge from anything with a USB port (unlike my N95) and you can buy external battery packs if the power is a problem.
Also, the iPhone can only be managed by one computer. Not a concern if you only have one computer, but a pain if you have more than one. Thankfully, this is fairly easy to work around using the instructions at

My final concern isn't a real concern, but something to be wary of. The iPhone makes it easy to purchase things from the iTunes store (if it's too big to download on the phone, iTunes will download it next time you sign in on that). The problem comes because it is easy to hear a song (on the radio or elsewhere) and think "I haven't heard that in a while, think I'd like a copy of that" and before you know it, you've already bought it. And yes, this has happened to me. You just have to discipline yourself..
