Recent reports say iPhone uses illegal toxins. Will the news effect your purchasing decision?

Is there anyone out there who was considering buying an iPhone, but now after the recent reports of toxins has decided not to purchase the Apple mobile product?

The toxins are still within legal limits. Everything has toxins. What's important is the way consumers dispose of devices with toxins.
I've heard that only 20% of computers are disposed of properly. My Idea? Apple should show how green they are by offering a 20 dollar discount when consumers purchase the next version of the iPhone, the 3G version. that way apple could do their part to ensure their devices were exposed of properly.

That would make me believe that Apple is truly Green. Come on Al Gore, talk to Steve

I have already purchased an iPhone. The news isn't anything I enjoy hearing, but a reality of life. I chose to see the news as a reminder on how important the proper disposal of electronic devices is.
