Tomasz,

This example probably shows one important aspect - PEAP rules. Whatever we do, by using anything other then PEAP we are really making our users' life miserable, with the possible exception of Windows XP (also SP3), where PEAP is still difficult to set up. If we want to support users with telephone-like devices, then we have to give them PEAP. If we are giving PEAP to some, then why not to all?

I have an iPod Touch and I upgraded it to 2.0 firmware. Out of the box it seems to do PEAP/MSCHAP only indeed, but according to http://wifinetnews.com/archives/008391.html you are able to use the iPhone configuration utility to configure other EAP-methods. I have not tried this yet myself, will let you know if I find out more.
