Key word "new". http://developer.android.com/resources/dashboard/platform-versions.html 1.5 + 1.6 = 3.3% 3.0+ = 1.3% Obviously the former will eventually die out and the latter will grow, but for *now* , if you already have an app, ignoring the larger base seems silly, IMO. > Android 2.1 is decling very fast an will be almost irrelevant in 6 months. > Do you have stats to back that up? http://developer.android.com/resources/dashboard/platform-versions.html 15.2% - that's a fairly decent chunk and given phones usually run on 2-year contracts and carriers suck at keeping phones up to date, I doubt that will drop to "irrelevant" levels in just 6 months. > Tablet usage is on the rise.
