There are a couple of ways. Many phones offer access to internal or external disk space by mass storage mode, similar to any USB flash drive. There are _rare_ viruses that propagate by attaching themselves to storage devices plugged into your machine.

The thing is, this is is not a big threat at all. Mass storage devices cannot autorun in Windows. Most it could do is add an extra option to the device action list that the user would then have to choose.
