It really depends on the timeframe you have in mind, or what you want your device to do. If you want a codeline that is considered shippable today, or if 1.6 is enough for you, go with donut (actually, android-1.6_r1.4). If 2.0 added some features that you want, and if you can deal with that fact that eclair will receive a few more changes (I've seen a few more tweaks go by on our internal server since I prepared the snapshot that I open-sourced recently), go with eclair.
