no real i don't kidding at least as the Greenpeace say here
http://www.greenpeace.org/international/news/iPhone-test-hazardous-toxic-chemicals151007

quote "So we bought a new iPhone in June and sent it our Research Laboratories in the UK. Analysis revealed that the iPhone contains toxic brominated compounds (indicating the prescence of brominated flame retardants (BFRs)) and hazardous PVC"

i really don't think that anyone will throw his iphone because it is bio hazardous

I'm sure it has lead, mercury, and gold too. Most electronics contain hazardous materials. That is why you're supposed to dispose of them properly. Greenpeace is just trying to create hype. Don't eat it and you'll be fine.
