It's not just our phone its a lot of other Android phones. If you look at some of the forums on Android Central for example where they have it available, many users chime in and say it isnt working on their particular device. I assume you tried it, I was going to, but since you did and it doesnt work, I guess that answered my question. Some people are saying it appears to be device specific, and I'm sure that someone here can figure it out and make it work. I just don't know if they really have that high on the priority list with all the other stuff that people want fixed on this phone.

Uhm what the heck are you talking about machek? I was able to install the new Market no problem. It's not the most straightforward process, but I was able to do it. It's a system app so you have to do it manually (on our port).

i was kinda thinking thats how its done (as seeing thats what you have to do for the cell.apk). do i dare ask how you do that?

Well you obviously didnt read my whole post, you must have just skimmed it. I said " I assume you tried it, I was going to, but since you did and it doesnt work, I guess that answered my question. Some people are saying it appears to be device specific, and I'm sure that someone here can figure it out and make it work."
So as I said before, I didnt try it, I was only answering what I knew from reading elsewhere that some devices have troubles with it, which is a correct statement. Secondly you say that you have installed it with "not the most straightforward process" and it seems that my statement that "someone here can figure it out and make it work" is also a correct statement because apparently someone has. So I dont get why you have to make it sound like I'm so full of it, I was just trying to chime in with what I've read.

Your first line threw me:

"It's not just our phone its a lot of other Android phones."

Plus, the OP's response to your post was basically "Android sucks because nothing works" or something to that effect... which is very misguided. I don't want to get in any pissing matches over WP7 & Android. They both have their pros and cons...

So I didn't mean to sound so rude, it's just the thread was going downhill quickly, only 3 posts in .

What you call fragmentation I call choice... but to each their own.
