My Xoom updated to this build earlier this evening, bringing along with it a fairly ugly new market. I didn’t think it looked bad on the phone, but not a fan of its looks on the tablet, especially “my apps”.

All that being said, it does seem to work a bit better, and having the categories like “top new free” is nice.

But why can I still not rate or review an app?!?

Jim – you can leave reviews and ratings – just go to the app (my apps > choose an app > click on the apps name in the right pane) and it’s on the left.

I must admit, I preferred the previous release. Keeping apps and movies as separate categories was a good thing, maybe they think that by muddling them together at the top layer I’m more likely to drop $5 on a movie rental I’m not interested in, but it just gets in my way. I just find I’m doing more pass-through clicking(pressing?) now. Plus, as mentioned, My Apps seems to have forgotten how to format nicely for landscape.
I do like the slightly darker theme, not a fan of screaming white interfaces, so the more google offers at least the option of slightly darker interfaces, the better.

Fix the dissappearing email bug….

I have noticed since the update my wifi only xoom will no longer connect to the wifi hotspot from my AT&T phone. Wonder if that was intentional?
