As other commenters have noted HTC's Windows mobile phones are also named,
though distinguished from Android ones, even if Windows itself is not
specifically mentioned.

Apparently HTC only learned about the attack via the Apple press release
and various website reports, that happened before they had been served..

And when targeting Windows-running mobiles, they referred to the hardware, _not_ the software. So, yes, it's an explicit attack against the Linux mobile stack.
