I think the sandboxing argument is enough reason why AV software is a non-starter for iOS phones. It can't functon without special OS permissions. OTOH, Kapersky and others would provide a valuable service if they came us with an AV app that runs on jailbroken phones. Most known threats against iPhones only work on jailbroken phones.
Apple's app store is imperfect but is curated against threats better than other markets. I also expect Apple to respond near-instantly to exposed security flaws.
