Default Apps Missing in the Market

Like a lot of people on this board i got my T-mobile Desire delivered this morning. I started downloading all my apps from the market place, and noticed some are missing. It's not just paid apps, but free ones as well. Has anyone else noticed this?

I can't find:
Record It (paid)
Battle for Mars (paid)
Tapatalk (paid or free)

and others. Can anyone else see these in the market?

I'm also noticing this but i thought it was just paid apps. Can't find abduction or what the doodle. There's also no top paid option when going through the categories

I'm not at home, typing this from the desire. Might be a good idea to try and install another version of market.apk

DONATE TO ME
It just might be that these applications aren't compatible with Android 2.1 targets.

I don't think it's a compatibility issue. Why would they disable paid apps tab then? There's something fishy going on.

I can't find half of my apps, even the one I've paid for while on G1!

Those 3 apps you listed are missing from my market place but I still have the 'Top Paid' tab, I don't know why you are missing that but the applications are probably due to compatibility.

I've had this problem before on my hero with some custom roms, never found a way to fix it.

And if i remember correctly when the hero was first launched some people on orange or t-mobile where having problems with missing market apps.

I have removed content lock from my t-mobile account and now I get all tabs in the market. But I still can't see certain apps.

Something strange or I am having yet another senior moment.
I went in to Manage my applications and in there is Ringtone Trimmer, I thought I would make me some ringtones, looked for it in programmes and it is not there. I then thought it must be in Marketplace but alas no!! How can I have an application in Manage my applications and yet not have the application????
