To my understanding, correct. They see no updates. I've seen the behavior
myself. I have a 2.3 phone and have many apps that show having been updated
recently, but that device received no such update.

To my understanding, yes, they will see the last published version that
supported their device.

And (3) can i have an APK for user of 2.3.x and *below* ... and the *another

Yes, see "Multiple APK" support. However, it's probably a better idea to
try to support every version you want to target in one APK using reflection
and other such strategies.
