Amarok 2.1 should be perfectly capable of managing iPhones. According to the
docs (ChangeLog and Bugzilla) it's supposed to thread them as an iPod. If
you got problems with your iPhone I strongly suggest that you either report
it to the Amarok developers by their mailinglist (
https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/amarok ) or the KDE bugzilla (
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=184744 ). :)
