Not sure if it is specific to the Market app or if it on Google's backend, but the 'trial' period for paid apps (return window) is now only 15 minutes instead of 24 hours.

Pros & Cons

So, it shortens the time for refunds, could be slower than previous version... Any reason I would have to hurry up to install it
? Sooner or later google is going to shove it down my throat doing a forced automatic update most likely

The new market UI is sooooo much worse than the original one... The HUGE part of a screen occupied by a green useless bar is horrible. The screen size for the list, the thing I'm more interested in, is much smaller. Carousel for featured apps - I'd much rather see the apps in the list than swiping them.
This's just my opinion, of course

Im really liking this new market app. I think its a very clean ui and I don't miss the tabs at all. Reviews and related and developer info all on one page. Seemed as fast as the last version.

While i like the overall look of the new market i agree, you should have the option of hiding the carousel. Definatly takes up to much screen/app list space. Would be nice to be able to slide it up/down much like the notification dropdown.
Also think the 15 min trial is not enough time to test so apps, i.e. Location based apps. Say you DL it indoors/area with no GPS signal and by the time you can get outdoors to test you realize app doesnt work because of a defective GPS ;-). I think trials periods should be developers choice with a minimum of 30 mins

Have cm6.1 Beta3 installed and get nothing but fc's. If i clear data through manage applications I get it to present terms and conditions and after I accept I see the new UI for a sec (if that) before it just exits and fc's repeatedly.
