Answer 1

You might find Reto Meier's article on backwards-compatibility useful, specifically the section headed "Dealing with missing classes".

I've yet to look at the Honeycomb SDK myself but I, like you, am hoping it's pretty easy and hassle-free to make use the new features without jeopardising compatibility with older devices.
