It would seem that since it is an Apple product it will be unix/linux based like their computers and as such is most likely just as immune to virus/spyware/malware attack.
Yes, you are right and honestly that was one reason I switched from Windows many years ago. I save some big $$ not buying any more antivirus programs for my 4 iMac systems at home
However,
they say one reason for all these attacks on Windows based systems is due to its popularity! I kind of agree ... one can GOOGLE for tons of sample codes on how to write a new virus / malware for Windows!
Thus, as the popularity of this so cool iPhone increases ... same as the number of interested and talented virus/spyware/malware folks!

Hey man, I just finished the 1st spyware ever for iPhone!

Wow dude ... way to go ... can you share the code?!
LOL ... anyway, nothing is 100% bullet proof.
P.S. It didn't take those guys to "
unlock" the iPhone with a few lines of codes so people can use them with Rogers in Canada! So, how long would it take them to write spywares and etc?!
