NO NO NO... the title for the article should read "First malicious worm for JAILBROKEN iPhones in the wild" because that is the only way to get it and lazy readers will just start running for the hills claiming how insecure the iPhone is.

No. Notice the use of the term mobile handset? That is a phone.
