Honeycomb is going to make a significant difference as its the enabler

Honeycomb is not in their hands. And developers may well want to take
advantage of some of the Honeycomb goodies in future... but yes there
is nothing core per-se that prevents porting to non-Honeycomb
platforms today but compared to what is expected to arrive soon I
would skip the current stuff in a hearbeat...

I'd love to know where you're getting that information from --
everything I've heard from Google employees has been that Honeycomb is
just the codename for 2.4, and that the core apps (messaging,
contacts) will be de-coupled from the OS and put in the market so that
there can be a phone version and a tablet version of each.
