Oddly enough, one iPad2 here with iOS 5.0.1 had diagnostics & usage set to "automatically send".

So, a summary:

* Nearly all iPhones have it, but it is disabled by default.

* No Verizon phones have it.

* The Google Nexus doesn't have it.

* Rooted / Rom'ed Androids don't have it.

* News reports only find it on one device--these seem inaccurate
* Quote from following news article: " Dutch site Tweakblogs has readers reporting back their findings and thus far, only a single device, the 7-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P1000, returned a match for CIQ."  http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/technology/carrier-iq-how-to-detect-it-on-an-android-device/2011/12/01/gIQANI9PHO_story.html?wpisrc=nl_tech
* "and thus far, only a single device, the 7-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab GT-P1000, returned a match for CIQ" http://www.theverge.com/mobile/2011/12/1/2602528/how-to-test-your-android-device-for-carrier-iq-rootkit

* Class action lawsuits have been filed against T-Mobile USA, Sprint Nextel Corp., Motorola Mobility Holdings Inc., Samsung Telecommunications America and BlackBerry-maker Research in Motion Ltd http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/technology/2011/12/carrier-iq-t-mobile-sprint-rim-face-class-action-suits.html So apparently that's who has it.
