Allow copying droid app to sd card?

I've got a number of apps in the Android Market. One complaint I've received is that the apps, once installed on a phone, cannot be moved to the SD card. I've tried uploading to the Android Market both with and without the copy protection, but the apps still are not able to be copied to the SD Card. Anyone know what I need to change in the settings to allow this?

MGoBlue -- Here is a link to do some reading.. http://mobile.tutsplus.com/tutorials/android/move-to-sd-card/ BT 1.4 runs on Android 1.6 and up I am sure you know this... The feature you are looking for is for Device builds 2.2 and up. You should be able to change your min sdk version after importing the project to 'I think to 7'. Remember that once you upload to the market with '7' all the old devices will no longer see your app.. So I would check the android Statistic to see how many people are running your app below 2.2. I am around 7% of users still below 2.2. Buzztouch is a very small app in package size so my take is let them complain..
