You'll have to add in armv6 support / architecture in xcode I think. Comments No, it'll just be backwards compatible. Will work 3.1 and up.

They do that as a baseline, backwards compatible thing. Good ol StackOverFlow have a few posts on adding the armv6 support for older models and why you have to. If interested have a peek - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3310907/what-are-the-advantages-of-armv7-over-armv6-when-compiling-iphone-apps Have been there myself recently. Comments Yip.
