-webkit-user-select controls whether the user is allowed to select the  
text of the element.

Of course, there is no text selection in Safari on iPhone. If you see - 
webkit-user-select being used in Apple sample code, it's either  
because the sample is also intended to work on desktop, and preventing  
selection makes sense there, or because it has performance  
implications (e.g. it prevents redrawing when the element is tapped).
