Sure, the government invested in and helped create a number of key technologies. But Jobs (and others) innovated and integrated those technologies into products that sell millions or billions of units. It seems unlikely the government itself would ever had created a compact phone designed for consumers.
Probably poor phrasing, but the government did invest into GPS, the internet, etc. I'd read this more as a justification for state sponsored research than Pelosi claiming the iPhone was some bureaucrat's idea.
