> OpenGL also only became available on Android 1.6

I believe opengles 1.0 was available from the first public release of android - though some sources claim 1.6 added opengles 1.1 support.

Though I think there were sometimes difference in what was exposed between the NDK and in java - e.g. opengles2.0 was supported in the NDK at android 2.0, but not in java until android 2.2
