This is a pretty shallow assessment. They acknowledge the malware argument, but don't address it at all. Remember that the iPhone was introduced at a time when Windows was absolutely plagued with trojan scams.

I suppose some copycat apps send tons of notifications, but you can easily uninstall those. As far as I know, iOS sandboxing is better than Android's, so I don't think there's any greater risk.
