The most noticeable change is the Retina Display and you should include @2x images in your project to support this. Other than that unless you plan on taking advantage of new hardware (gyroscope for example) or the graphics and cpu improvements, there is very little difference. Also you should reference the SDK Compatibility Guide for tips on maintaining backwards compatibility and/or supporting features available only on certain devices.
