Will There Soon Be Android Orphans?

Last week I wrote about how I think that Google is releasing updates to Android too fast. As the differences between the different version of Android become more extreme, developers will have to make a choice about whether they will target their applications for all versions of Android in the market, or just the most recent versions. The consequence for users is that if they have an older phone they may not be able to run the latest and greatest applications on their phone.
