The poorly written code was in the Atheros driver, which was nothing to do with Apple, and indeed other platforms using the same hardware were also vulnerable.
They still haven't clearly stated that a stock Airport Extreme setup is as vulnerable as shown, as they clearly used a usb wireless device for the demo.
I would have more respect for these guys if they hadn't come out with the 'poke a lit cigarette in every Apple user's eye' comment which proved they had an axe to grind.
