Yikes! Have Iphone's ever been infected with anything before?

Some malware exists, but nothing infectious that I know of.  Last year there was a rogue app that made it onto the App Store, but it could only spread by texting your friends a link to the App Store hoping they would install the app.  Here's a recent article on mobile malware:

As you can see, iPhone's exposure to malware is somewhere in the tiny sliver called "Others".

What about jailbroken iPhones?

That's ingored in these reports. But people getting apps outside of Google's Play store is not.
