I have a lower success rate with Siri than I do with the voice built into the Android, and that bothers me. I’ll be saying, over and over again in my car, ‘Call the Lark Creek Steak House,’ and I can’t get it done. Then I pick up my Android, say the same thing, and it’s done. Plus I get navigation. Android is way ahead on that. My primary phone is the iPhone. I love the beauty of it. But I wish it did all the things my Android does, I really do.” – Wozniak

The people I recommend the iPhone 4S for are the ones who are already in the Mac world, because it’s so compatible, and people who are just scared of computers altogether and don’t want to use them. The iPhone is the least frightening thing. For that kind of person who is scared of complexity, well, here’s a phone that is simple to use and does what you need it to do.” – Wozniak

If he was still working he'd no doubt be coding for Android. Or Meego - it's less mainstream.

I dont think he would be coding for anyone, he was purely a hardware man, designing physical hardware, and technically he is still working.

Even if you consult people its work last time I checked.
 
Important point to note that he mentioned the iPhone is still his primary device.

Overall the reports on ICS are very positive i.e. many of the gripes with Android are reported to be resolved e.g. lag, interface inconsistency, ...
I'd also agree in many ways ICS has taken Android ahead of iOS and Apple now has some catching up to do. The problem however is that only a limited few of today's Android users will be able to enjoy ICS without replacing their devices (fragmentation being the primary issue)
