I noticed a new icon on my phone this morning for the Market and thought my phone was hacked!

SAN FRANCISCO — Google’s digital marketplace for mobile applications, music, movies and books is unifying under a new name in an effort to spruce up the shopping experience.

Beginning Tuesday, the Android Market will be known as the Google Play Store. Google’s eBookstore and recently launched music service will also be part of the Google Play Store. The same selection of books, music and movies had already been available on Android Market.

The rebranding will be ushered in with a series of tweaks designed to make it easier for customers to manage their content and navigate from one section of the store to another. None of the changes will affect the digital content that existing customers have already purchased and stored on Google computers in password-protected accounts.

Yeah, got my new icon three days ago. No noticeable difference in performance. I still go through a dns app to get to the market. Much faster than a Thai dns.

which app is this?

DNS changer. Phone must be rooted. Very good little app.

Gotta wonder about the wisdom of giving Android Market a hokey new name like "Play Store"? Makes it sound like the whole Android platform is a toy. I bet the Apple fanboys will try to jump on this.

Reminds me of the Thais that refer to using the internet as "You play internet?"
