Surely, somebody has collected this. (Now, are they willing to give it away for free, though?)
I'd also be interested in sources of traditional media contacts.
Being new to both iPhone development and Apple, the list doesn't just roll off the top of my head. Heck, other than MacWorld, I couldn't even name one other Mac magazine...
Experience with PR agencies? Cost? Are there "boutique" agencies that deal with iPhone apps? Any good?

jtara,
Great question. There are some nice lists of sites posted here. It looks like you are ready and willing to go through the effort to roll your own marketing.
But, you ask about boutique agencies - we are one such agency. Check us out at bootcampmobile.com. We believe our experience will allow developers to focus on building "great" apps and we can handle all the marketing to maximize the revenue.
We also have brand and agency clients who are looking to license a yet to be released product - which gives up front license fees to the developer before an app even launches!
I don't want to go on too much and violate the integrity of these forums.
Just wanted people to know that firms exist to help market your app, and there are other options than just putting the app in the iTunes store and delivering to app review sites.
Good luck!
