Read on.<\/p>\n<h3>iPhone 3GS \/ iPod Touch 3rd-Gen<\/h3>\n<p>Both of these will get full compatibility; the whole shebang. Note that the third-gen iPod will only support all the new features on models with 32 or 64GBs of memory; the 16GB model was really a second-gen iPod, which is discussed below.<\/p>\n<h3>iPhone 3G \/ iPod Touch 2nd-Gen<\/h3>\n<p>Some compatibility. Multitasking will not be available due to a lower amount of\u00a0RAM (128MB vs. 256 on the newer models) and a slower processor. It&#8217;s not clear yet whether multitasking is the only new feature that&#8217;ll be missing. Nor is it clear as to whether Apple will be charging iPod Touch users a fee to upgrade like they did with iPhone OS 3.<\/p>\n<div id=\"inline-related-posts-43855\" class=\"widget inline-related-posts alignleft clearfix\">\n<div class=\"widget-wrap\">\n<div class=\"widget-title-wrap clearfix\">\n<h2 class=\"widget-title\">More on <span><a class=\"category-link\" href=\"http:\/\/theappleblog.com\/topic\/iphone\" title=\"iPhone\">iPhone<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<ul class=\"inline-related-posts\">\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"inline-related-posts-article\"><a href=\"http:\/\/theappleblog.com\/2010\/04\/08\/iphone-os-4-0-details-details-details\/\">iPhone OS 4.0: Details, Details,&nbsp;Details<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"brand-icon apple-blog\"><a href=\"http:\/\/theappleblog.com\" title=\"Visit: The Apple Blog - This is a description.\">Mac Love<\/a><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"inline-related-posts-article\"><a href=\"http:\/\/theappleblog.com\/2010\/04\/08\/iphone-4-0-mail-folders-ibooks\/\">iPhone OS 4.0: Mail, Folders &#038;&nbsp;iBooks<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"brand-icon apple-blog\"><a href=\"http:\/\/theappleblog.com\" title=\"Visit: The Apple Blog - This is a description.\">Mac Love<\/a><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"inline-related-posts-article\"><a href=\"http:\/\/theappleblog.com\/2010\/04\/08\/iphone-os-4-0-multitasking-and-app-switching\/\">iPhone OS 4.0: Multitasking and App&nbsp;Switching<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"brand-icon apple-blog\"><a href=\"http:\/\/theappleblog.com\" title=\"Visit: The Apple Blog - This is a description.\">Mac Love<\/a><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"inline-related-posts-article\"><a href=\"http:\/\/theappleblog.com\/2010\/04\/07\/ten-things-not-to-expect-in-iphone-os-4\/\">10 Things Not to Expect in iPhone OS&nbsp;4<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"brand-icon apple-blog\"><a href=\"http:\/\/theappleblog.com\" title=\"Visit: The Apple Blog - This is a description.\">Mac Love<\/a><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<div class=\"widget-bottom clearfix\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>iPhone \/ iPod Touch 1st-Gen<\/h3>\n<p>Apple hasn\u2019t officially said anything on these two yet, and that\u2019s likely a sign that you won\u2019t be able to run OS 4 at all. At least those of you still using these dinosaurs have a new iPhone to look forward to in June.<\/p>\n<h3>iPad<\/h3>\n<p>Obviously, the just-released iPad will be able to run the new OS. It&#8217;s worth mentioning because the update won&#8217;t be available until the Fall, which seems like a long time considering that the iPhone and iPod Touch are getting the update this summer.<\/p>\n<p>How do you feel about Apple&#8217;s compatibility decisions?
