No, the dismiss keyboard button on the keyboard is an iPad-only idiom, it's a 
bigger keyboard and the iPad is more suited to the idea that you have various 
fields on screen, you edit one and drop the keyboard when you're done. The 
iPhone idiom for editing depends on content, if you have a number of 
UITextFields then the 'return' key usually says you're done with it. In the 
case of a UITextField, with the keyboard up that's really your whole screen, so 
the most common idiom there is 'in edit mode' with the 'done' button on the 
navbar, if you have a navbar.
