Note, this vulnerability and exploit works on all MSM on all phones on GSM systems (AT&T and T-Mobile in the US). The presenters of the exploit stated they used the iPhone only because it made a sexier more presentation. Here are both an iPhone and a Sony Ericsson being exploited.

This is NOT FUD. . . this cellular phone exploit demonstrated at this week's Black Hat Conference works on all MSM messaging on GSM cell phone carriers (it has not been tested on European carriers) including AT&T and T-Mobile in the US. iPhones and other makes are susceptible.
