Even Woz now thinks that Android devices are in many ways better than the iPhone/iPad.

Interesting read, is that normally a true source of info?

Personally, I prefer the customiseability of Windows to anything. Compare 'Right-click->graphics properties' and the 10 tabs with 50 checkboxes each, or go to 'System settings->display' one small page. And ICS has LESS than Gingerbread had.

Bring on the Windows 8 phones.

Well, I am not familiar with the author (and the overall journalistic trend these days is for even credible outlets to give blog wrters their own little space to say anything), but Daily Beast is basically Newsweek, which is fairly mainstream (with all the credibility and caveats that implies). So personally, I would trust it, and I had read the bit about Woz getting the Android preview device elsewhere fwiw.
