I agree with you - it may not be mainstream - but no phone is a niche in the market sense. Its either mainstream (in the sense of a big main player along with others) or behind.

And secondly in US Smartphone sales iPhone is 2nd to RIM - so its mainstream in US.

In global smartphone hardware market they are 3rd place. Whether that's mainstream or not is another debate.
