Iphone, Toxic?

Read from the papers today that iphone, which seems to be cool and stylo has contain harmful material in it. Something that is not out in Singapore happens to be harmful to the human health. Is it a good thing or a bad thing? At least we are not expose to those toxics but soon we will. From the article, dangerous levels of bromine, chlorine and phthalates are present in it. The outer look of apple product can be clean and neat but what is under the cover can be another story. Phthalates which is in the plastic coating of the earphone are some sort linked to birth defects, pregnant women using iphone will be vulnerable to theses toxics if they are to wind and unwind it a few times per day. Batteries are also soldered to iphone therefore unable to replace or recycle it, making it environmentally unfriendly as it is harder to properly dispose of the batteries. So does it pay to expose yourself to dangerous substances in order to enjoy the cool and stylo iphone? I guess the answer is pretty obvious.
