I got the update last night form Market Place to Play Store. It is what it is but my problem is that the small icon we have just below the clock in the app section of our phone no longer works. When someone figures out how to redirect it to go to the Play Store, rather then the old Market Place, let me know.

Read here why the change to Google Play Store:Google toys around with the Android Market, changes name to Google Play - Yahoo! News
Main reason for the change is because Apple was hassling them...

Own a Motorola Device? Google Play Store Update Probably Just Broke Your Market Links
As the Google Play store rolls out to handsets across the world, those of you with Motorola devices are noticing one thing in particular – it breaks your app drawer market link. Yep, it’s annoying and it won’t be fixed until Moto releases another OTA update. The Blur skin installed on your phone is looking for the old market application, but since it has been renamed, removed, or replaced (however you want to look at it), it won’t ever find it. I’m sure that crafty rooted users can find a way to manipulate Blur code to look for the Play Store, but the majority of you are simply ___ out of luck.
So when your market updates today – unless you did already – and you see this notification leading you to believe that your Android Market is gone for good…actually it is gone for good. Instead, try not to freak out and simply turn a couple of extra pages until you find “Play Store.” Yep, that’s what Google is calling the market these days.
*Note – Since Moto has about 15 different versions of Blur in the wild, this may not affect all of their phones. It’s definitely causing problems on the RAZR and MAXX though.

It took me all day to realize what icon was missing from my home screen. Turns out it was this. It would have been nice for the update to send a message telling me how to access the app market and that the name was changed!
