Android is an excellent platform that has been hugely successful. But it is not without its problems. Fragmentation is one of those problems.
Based on information from developer.android.com , about 36% of Android phones are running Android 2.2, about 40% are running Android 2.1, with about 15% on Android 1.6, and 8% running Android 1.5, and around 1% running older obsolete versions.
In a statement from Apple CEO Steve Jobs, he expresses that there is a challenge for the Android developer community due to the fact that many Android apps only work on selected handsets, or selected Android release versions. In contrast, iPhone developers only have two versions to test againt, which are the current version and the most recent predecessor.
