On the whole, older applications run quite delightfully in newer versions of Android. Some small percentage of apps will need to be modified for any given Android release (e.g., those apps using contacts may need a revamp to deal with the new contacts API introduced with Android 2.0). And applications may need updates to take full advantage of newer capabilities (e.g., improved multiple screen resolution support introduced in Android 1.6). -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com Android App Developer Books: http://commonsware.com/books.html
