You can supply several images for different purposes. See http://help.adobe.com/en_US/air/build/WS901d38e593cd1bac1e63e3d129907d2886-8000.html#WS901d38e593cd1bac58d08f9112e26606ea8-8000

For a universal application that supports iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4(retina display) and iPad. The minimal set would be :

Default.png - which would contain the iPad launch image(for all orientaions)

Default~iphone.png - iPhone version of the image.

Default@2x~iphone.png - in order to support retina display.

You can find more information at http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#DOCUMENTATION/iPhone/Conceptual/iPhoneOSProgrammingGuide/BuildTimeConfiguration/BuildTimeConfiguration.html

If you name your application launch image file with the naming conventions at this page, they should be picked correctly by runtime.

Thanks,

Default.png would normally be the 320x480 image that is used by all devices if you haven't given alternatives. I suppose you could have a 768x1024 image that is Default.png, and it would be used by the iPad and not used by iPhone if you have also included a Default~iphone.png and Default@2x~iphone.png, but just to keep the convention it might be best to use Default.png for a 3GS and have another image at 768x1024 called Default~ipad.png for the iPad to use.
