Help Problems accessing Android market

I took delivery of my new HDH this week and I'm trying to install some apps - App killer, barcode reader etc. but I'm not able to access the market.

When I select the Market app the phone asks me to add a Google account.

When I try to log in with my existing Google account I get the following:

"Sorry - this account cannot be used on the phone because it is missing Google Calendar - please contact the domain admin or sign in using another account."

I currently sign into Google using my @ntlworld.com email address and already have a Google calendar set up and working in this account.

Should I:

a) Create a new Google account - it will ask me for an email address (presumably I should not use the @ntlworld.com address);
b) If yes, should create a new Google account should I be first creating a GMail account and address so I can use this.

Many thanks

Ian
 
I think you need a gmail account to get the most out of the phone. I can't confirm as I've always had one but it would probably work if you set yourself up with one.
