New Google Android Market update

The new market reminds me of Win Mo7 or Zune. I wonder if yet another Microsoft infringement suit is in the works.

But I'm loving the new multiple account feature.

One of the correspondents on Google+ said it was lagging his phone due to more images (and larger?) being loaded.

Anyone have any feedback on that?

I would say it is a little laggy. Some things like My Apps seem to take a lot longer to load. It has also timed out on me once.
 
All Android Market update threads have been merged into one. Sorry for any confusions :)

Its a lil bit laggy but not too bad.

I had to ditch it on my phone since I was unable to update apps with it.

Yup I am having the same issue. Workaround for now is to check off automatic updating and eventually it does.

Yeah its weird as it seems to only be happening to certain people. I figured that would work but don't like automatic updates so I just uninstalled it.
 
For those having issues on Liberty .9, make sure you have the permissions set correct. It would look like this

Oh, and I think the new market is pretty slick. WinPho7 is the only OS that has me interested besides Android, so that may be it.
 
I've got the APK, but think I will wait for my phone to update itself, so I don't jeopardise any future auto updates to the Market.
 
So does this new market ever update? Mine has been showing the same app at the top and bottom for over a day?
 
I installed it on my Optimus-V, but immediately unistalled. Didn't like it and hope they don't force push the update. I don't think the text is as readable (and no option to make it larger). Seems a bit cluttered and difficult to go directly to your installed apps. Someone said Amazon apps were there, I didn't see them. Happy with Appbrain.

I was having the same problem so I uninstalled the new market and then restarted my phone and then reinstalled the APK and now it updates just fine.

Hmm I installed the market and it says OpenTable has an update but when I choose it it only has open or uninstall, no update. Anyone else having a no update problem?

Yep, with Twitter for me. I've heard a number of other people are having the same issue..hopefully this is a bug that will be fixed
 
A couple weird differences. My Apps are now shown alphabetically instead of chronologically. The issue I had with search is now fixed. With old market, search only worked when it felt like it. It is laggy, but I am trying to give it a chance. I love love love how books are easy to find. I can go to genres, find fantasy, and find like five sub-genres under fantasy! Incredible. You can't even find that much organization at Borders.
 
After playing with it over several days I have to say I am really, really liking how they lay out permissions now. On the old market, I'd see an app get update and require a manual update because the permissions had changed. I hated this because I never knew just from a glance what permissions had changed and had to go through and compare them. The new market now flags the permission changes so you can see exactly what permissions have changed just at a glance.
