update

I have an app on the market that requires sdk 2.0 I want to rewrite and publish it using 1.6 to find a wider audience.

The question is: if I update my already published app with an sdk downgrade to 1.6 will it then show up to users with phones at 1.6? I know currently the market search shows my app only to those that have 2.0 phones.
