    What the hell happened to my market app? Completely changed when i launched it just there.
    Quite liking the new look so far although it took me a minute to find MyApps.

    On a HTC Desire (vodafone)...still the old market on the wifes samsung galaxy.

    Mine just changed to a new version, Nexus 1 on Vodafone. Was still showing the old one on wifi but as soon as I changed to 3g it updated.

    Its market version 3.1.3 for anyone interested.

    Interesting, dont know if this is new or not but the Top lists (or at least Top Free anyway) seem to be based on location - unless RTE News Now is the 27th most popular app worldwide. Useful I suppose but I'd prefer the option of a global view rather than just restricted to Ireland.

    Welcome to last month or when ever the unofficial one was released.

    Have a Sensation, updated to 2.3.4, market remained the same. Installed Insert Coin ROM over the weekend, new market installed with it, it's very lovely.. (although I too spent a few seconds wondering where My Apps had gone)

    This happened to me today. I was aware of the Market update last month but chose not to update.
    Then I was on the Market earlier and was told I had an update to one of my apps, a game.
    Then after I updated that, I went back into the Market and BOOM! New Market! I got no indication it was being updated.

    Oddly enough though, I coulda sworn I did that app update yesterday!! I wonder are they sneakily hiding the market update in the form of ur last update!

    Nope. Market updates silently. It does pick up old updates sometimes though :/ I updated the same apps to the same versions a few times. It caused the puzzles
