When I wrote my first app, I was careful to maintain 2.0 compatibility so
that I could reach the max number of customers. It was not really that
difficult, since there were not all that many 3.x-only features that I
needed, and I simply conditionalized the usage of some of them. However, I
now think that there were very few of these customers, and I could just as
well have skipped the effort. Besides, the memory on 2.0 devices was
generally very limited, so people did not tend to load so many 3rd-party
apps, and especially ones like mine that are usually associated with large
databases, etc.
