Recently some investigation shows that iOS 3G hardware is having issues running our App. This appears to be true when attempting to launch it from Springboard.

Some data indicates that 3G is a very tiny percentage of people out there right now, and anyone playing games have probably upgraded to 3GS or 4 by now.

If the decision is made not to support 3G hardware, how is it best communicated to consumers or how to make them aware of this fact? Do we simply state what iOS version we support, and make it above 3G supportable? Or is there some submission field that specifies what hardware we support? Is this limited in Xcode (so I am told), but how do we do it with Corona SDK?

What has been other people's experiences in this regard?

Thanks.

EDIT: Woops, I didn't read your post carefully, did I? I guess you needed to find out how to communicate to your users (or general public) about your app's minimum requirement. Sorry, but I don't have fool-proof good suggestion for it, but let's hope that more experienced game/app publishers would post good advice.

Hey Jerome, I saw a forum post yesterday that would've answered your question. I think it was Jonathan Beebe who posted the answer. I didn't book mark the forum post, but I added comments to my build.settings:
