An iPhone is too heavy to ride with :-)
They're even heavier than 2 steel cans and a piece of string. 
iPhone 4S: 140g.
Two steel cans connected by string: 108g.

This is the 21st century - replace that string with a modular phone cord and see how much it weighs!

You can get CF cans that weigh half as much as the titanium, but cost about $200 each. Totally worth it! That iPhone is just so heavy. Sucks trying to get up a hill with mine in my jersey pocket.

Riding with a heavy iPhone before an iguad or ilung upgrade is asking for trouble.
