My personal take:
v2 is a mature but officially deprecated API (they may or may not fix
bugs, but won't add new features)
v3 is under active development and is targeted at mobile devices,
important pieces are either not yet implemented or are left to the
developer to implement (won't be implemented).

v3 is more "future-proof", v2 is more mature, you need to decide which
is more important to you right now.  I would expect that eventually we
will need to transition to v3 as v2 will be turned off at some point
(hopefully some years from now) and v3 should be supported longer.

The google engineers that participate in this group may be able to
provide more details (or say I am wrong).
