Whats the minimum spec you're building / testing your apps to run on?

An update for 2013, as this has been discussed before.
It's notoriously difficult to get good iOS stats on which devices users currently have. What is the minimum device you're targeting your apps to run on (Andriod or iOS)?
I'm testing on iPod4 (not 4s) as my minimum. Released 2010 and with the a4 processor. (non dual core). But also testing on ipod 3rd gen to make sure my game runs. I figure most people will have at least those devices.
What about you?

You could check iOS version currently on use in market right now via official Apple's stats https://developer.apple.com/devcenter/ios/checklist/
With majority is on iOS 6 now, and iOS 6 is not supported on iPod 3rd gen, IMO it's safe to make your iPod 4 as a minimum.
Lastly, i guess increasingly iPhone3GS and iPod 4 usage is dropping. It's hard to get statistic on device percentage since Apple dont let us see it
