Yes, unless you wish to pirate some software.

BTW, I literally just tried doing the backwards-compatibility stuff.
In terms of OpenGL ES 2.0 support, we're screwed. Even if the device
*has* support, if we have:

<uses-feature
android:glEsVersion="0x00020000"
android:required="false"/>

then we blow up when trying to load a SupportMapFragment:

12-17 22:08:18.933: E/AndroidRuntime(7079): Caused by:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Google Maps Android API only supports
OpenGL ES 2.0 andabove. Please add <uses-feature
android:glEsVersion="0x00020000" android:required="true" /> into
AndroidManifest.xml

A bug/feature request was filed by somebody already:
