I have a website. It uses jQuery, a few plugins, Cufon, etc to spice things up a little, mostly visually.

The iPhone version does not need any of these files.

Can I, without resorting to subdomains, prevent the iPhone from loading these scripts?

<script src="js/jquery-1.4.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="js/browsersupport.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="js/jquery.easing.custom.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="js/jquery.color.custom.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="js/jquery.sound.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

<script src="fonts/cufon.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="fonts/trgo.font.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Edit:

Using a library like this one: http://chrisschuld.com/projects/browser-php-detecting-a-users-browser-from-php/

How would I go on to detect iPhone?

Browser::isBrowser('iPhone');

Returns

Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context

    If the user agent indicates it’s an iPhone, don’t load them.

    Update:

    According to the class you referenced, this is how it should accomplish your check – I say should simply because I can see that some users commented that this wasn’t reliable for them on the blog you linked:

    $browser = new Browser();
$jQuery = ($browser->getBrowser() == Browser::PLATFORM_IPHONE) ? false : true ;
