There's already a fair amount of PD 2.0-only code, and at least one commercial 2.0-specific application (though they later came out with a 1.3 version). I'm doing things in 2.0 that flat weren't possible in 1.x. The resulting software is going to be 2.0-only, because those things are critical to proper operation of the software (i.e. - you tend to guru if they aren't there, or aren't done right). I may even be using things that won't run under 36.#? or early 37.#? versions of the OS, so the demo version of the software won't be released until after ROM is available for 3000s.
