I still have the old marketplace. Ive seen screenshots of the new one and see alot of people saying that they currently have the new one. I was just wondering if i am like the only one without the new one lol
 
i think on some roms it wont let u update it i had that prob i had to manually install with an update zip but not really feeling the new one
 
Got mine yesterday, not sure I am a fan. It's reeeeeaaaallllly slow. The layout is OK, I do sort of like everything (comments, description etc.) all on one page though. Just a matter of getting used to it I guess...and hoping the darn thing speeds up!
 
I only just got it last night on my D1

you could force it I think by going to Settings and clearing the data and cache for the Market app. Also, I think Droid Life web site had the apk if you really care.

its okay, but nothing great so....
 
I got it yesterday. Not too bad, but why would you hide part of the app description and show the comments. Seems counter intuitive.
 
I still have the old market, it seems to be having problems today. I get a server error message when I try to go into my downloads...
 
I've tried sideloading 2.2.6 and 2.2.7 but after I accept the terms and allow it just force closes over and over. Cleared data and cache but nothing I nandroided back to the old version. No prompt to update either so I guess ill just get it when I get it

Running UD 2.5, cleared the cache/data for market. didn't force the update, same ol market. Any other ideas on how to upgrade it?
I actually like the new version. :eek:

Well first of all it looks ugly as sin. It's like they took the whole concept of clean, text-centered interfaces that's been Google's hallmark for years and threw it out the window with this update. Then there's the fact that the return policy has been changed from 24 hours to 15 minutes. Yeah, I've got a copy of my current Vending.apk backed up and I'm ready to copy it back over to /system/app if I need to.
 
Ummm, so if you use an older market app on your phone, you get to keep the 24hour try before you buy policy?

I don't think so....
