The level of technology in a smartphone makes viruses a possibility. There have been a few in the past for Blackberry and other devices. With phones like the iPhone, that have a "walled garden" approach to apps, viruses are less likely as they are vetted prior to release. Most problems with this walled garden model come from those who choose to "jailbreak" their phones.
