I like I-Frames - but older browsers don't like them and if I rember correctly they are not W3C compliant (something of that such)
See, the thing is, what functionality does that iframe add to that page? What would be worse about just putting the contents of that iframe inline in its own div or something? iframes do allow you to switch pages without reloading the entire page, but they also are kind of messy and interfere when I scroll with a mousewheel. I think that they're ok if used correctly, but for the most part I would try to do as much inline as possible.
