When you start with a capital I and follow it with lower case such as Iphone it would appear as one word and in this case cause confusion.

When you are creating a brand pretty much anything goes including grammar. Apple created something unique, memorable and easy to use.

Finally, correct grammar is almost a thing of the past as people from all levels of life continue to butcher the english language. If I had to point a finger at the instigators it would be those dam rap people that weren't smart enough to learn it the proper way so they created their own words and somehow got them into the mainstream which diluted proper grammar and english.
