You simply won't have access to Android APIs added in 2.2 or 2.3. If you aren't using them, then nothing is lost.
If you want to use them when they are available, you will have to "target" 2.2, set a minimum version of 2.1 in the manifest, and then ensure you do runtime checks so you only call 2.2+ APIs on 2.2+ devices.
