I'd bet money that Apple had a hand in this article, it's complete and total FUD. If you install a malicious _kernel module_ on the phone (note that it is completely and entirely impossible to distribute this over the Market), and load it (note that this requires root, and stock android phones will not allow this; rooted phones require direct user intervention to allow root access), then all manner of evils may occur. That's like saying if you look up a robber, give him your keys, tell him you're going to be out of town for the next couple of weeks, and that you're not enabling the security system; you might get robbed.
Apple claims Mac is more secure, but that's an outright lie. Even Windows is more secure than Mac, it's just that no-one actually targets Macs because half their userbase is morons who don't have any money anyways. They spent it all on their Mac.
