You do look pretty angry in the picture 
It could be an issue with your router or a bad wifi connection? You could try the Amazon app market now too if you're feeling adventurous.

i did more than enough
and nothing
just talked to Rogers tech support and they shipped a brand new x10a
now lets clean the thing, to bring it back to 100% factory
I'm having the same issue as you and I'm with Rogers as well.
Been browsing around the forums and google'ing for the past days trying to find a solution.
I'm about to throw this phone away too lmao
I'm curious with what you said with the Rogers tech support since I'm leaning towards getting a Galaxy S. Mind sharing?

Me Rogers.
Me x10a running Rogers Stock 2.1 ROM w/official Multitouch update.
The odd time I had the market not downloading apps issue, but with uninstalling Market Updates and Clearing cache, it worked afterwards. Only happened me once I think. [It could of been in the 1.6 android days]
For the most part. Love my x10a. never has given me any issues.

I also tried cleaning the cache and uninstalling the updates but it didn't work.
Apps that I tried downloading just bugged on the "Starting download" process. Sometimes I would even try to go on the "Downloads" page, the market would just crash.
I've never really had significant problems like these since my purchase.
I can deal with the laggy interface and slow reponse time, but these kind of problems are sort of irritating.
Don't get me wrong though, I still like the X10, its still a great phone nonetheless.

hehe a 3rd x10a is on its way as we speak...
the one i recieved last week appears to have a faulty wifi adapter
weird.
My x10 wouldnt' connect to my buddys wifi network until I reset his wifi password. Worked with my laptop but not my phone.
Hopefully you can update this one and hopefully it stays problem free.

All three of your phones were fine. Most likely the "problem" isn't a problem with your phone. The wireless networks you are connecting to probably have the port that the android market operates on blocked. That would explain web traffic working fine and the market failing only when on wifi.

Goto Settings and chose the first option, Sony Ericsson and chose to download settings. That should reget your settings from your provider.
Also in Settings, open Applications, check Unknown Sources.
I have had problems with accessing the Market several times after I completely reflash the phone and it usually takes a reboot and resetting some settings before I can acutally download anything from the market.
Sometimes I could access the market and it wouldn't download anything and other times it just wouldn't access the market at all.
Now if you have the option for that Unknown Sources...that would let you maybe update the market APK.
You could copy over the newest market APK and then run it. Not tough, but I haven't had to do that.
After resetting and getting those settings repushed from your provider turn off the phone and take out the battery for 5 sec and start it back up and try again.
Once you get it to work once it will always work....just that first time can be a problem/pain.

If you turn on your Data plan and try and access the market via Data and not via wireless then guaranteed it is a routing issue and your home network.
If you have a DMZ setup on the router and that DMZ isn't your phone, then you will probably run into port forwarding issues eventually.
Hopefully you don't have any DMZ setup at all.
Make sure your phone doesn't have any stupid antivirus or security/firewall app on the phone.
If you can access the internet over wifi, but not the market....it is a problem on the phone with the market.apk or more likely, your routing.
Alot of people think routers never mess up....they do...a lot....when in doubt, remove any created rules on the router and reset your router password and restart it
