== Open Questions ==
# Do the phones at the minimum end of the spectrum provide a user experience that is within an acceptable range of our mid to high phones?
# If not, what is our threshold for cutting back?
# What is the update experience like for users on 2.1 smartphones? Will they stop receiving any updates since the new version will be 2.2+?
# Will 2.1 users who already had Firefox installed still be able to rate us in the Google Play Store? (concern that they will dock off stars since they aren't supported anymore)

;More testing
# Need testing on Motorola Charm and Motorola Flip Out to see if 600Mhz is acceptable
# Need testing on Samsung Continuum to see if 336Mb is acceptable
 
== Managing the User Experience ==
#(Scale to Market Share; focus on existing users)
#Option 1: Document in beta/release blog, Release Notes, Work with Sumo [Minimum Solution]
#Option 2: Push an auto-update to existing users and add a snippet to About:Home with a statement for existing users-?  [Maximum Solution]
#Option 3: Google Play: Update the Description in Auto Updates for existing users
#Option4: Keep unsupported hardware users on v10 ESR
