I think it might have to do with being more valid CSS, which is an issue on almost any site when it comes to phone browsers (it should be done to begin with, I'm not sure the old Apple site was completely valid) so it's viewable across multiple platforms, though I'm sure they would want to toot their own iPhone horn whenever possible. It wasn't an issue so much with the phone as it is with the site itself.
At least that's my take, maybe there's a more official answer, but to me this makes the most sense.

This is exactly what I think as well. The icons and functionality are in line with Leopard and it is dominantly featured at the center of the page. Regarding functionality, the drop down menus seem like a play on dock displaying multiple extending icons.
I can see this being useful for iPhone as well though. It makes navigating the site easier.
