Opened up the Readers Hub today, just to check if it was working yet, and was welcomed by two little green 'install' buttons on both the magazines and newspapers option. These buttons open up a Samsung modified app installer, and now...it's all working.
This is in Switzerland, running an unbranded unlocked 16GB SGT on Swisscom Liberty Grande contract.
EDIT: Ok, my excitement is growing less by the minute. While it works nicely, it seems there's no free content, neither in Newspapers nor in Zinio. Even the free papers that you can pick up at every bus stop around here (20Minuten) want to charge you. Not interested in paying for news when I can just use the the browser to read the online version for free.
EDIT 2: Right, it seems when you go through the Zinio website there's an option to search for free issues, and there's quite a few good ones there. No such option on PressDisplay however.
hm, still waitin...buy the way tnx for report
Just checked mine here in the UK and was greeted with the install buttons
Thanks for the heads up.

Just showed up for me today in Australia too.
Installed and bought a few issues through Zinio already.
Running well so far except for one of my subscriptions having problems downloading.
Got to laugh, daily star which costs around 35 pence or maybe less for a hard copy is costing 99 pence per issue. Not tempted to go digital at that price, just going to do the usual and fire up the car on a morning and buy it

Zinio is great value, as a UK magazine reader being able to subscribe to US versions of magazines for around $10 for a years subscription is superb value to me! (They look great on my iPad, hoping they look just as good on my RoadWarrior SGT!)
With PressReader, if you have an online subscription to The Times (about £9 a month) you can download the Daily and Sunday editions (+All the extra magazines), perfect for my commute!
The readers hub was a huge deciding factor for me in buying a SGT, Im looking forward to trying it out once I get home today!
i have the tmobile tab and i don't even see the readers hub app. How can I get it?
too bad zinio is mostly usless for non-english ppl. I don't get why we get kobo and zinio but no media hub in europe.

Also in the UK. Works fine
PS: free samples can be added to your Zinio account via the web interface. Then use the app to read the content.
Note: By the way, my Galaxy Tab is flashed with the latest P1000XWJK1 firmware (November 2010). I don't think this would make a difference, as the Samsung App Market functions normally (I see 2 apps in there).
WTH? So I just lost access to my FHM subscription on the galaxy tab. Even the issue that I had downloaded earlier today had magically vanished.
Can't even see similar magazines through the tab any more.
I hope this is isn't some kind of iPad compatibility issue... What with it being two competing devices with different philosophical views on censorship.
can someone post the zinio apk. in my hub, i installed the kobo one
Here in Finland in Tab there is Readers hub with PressDisplay, Kobo and Zinio.
PressDisplay gave some freebies.
In Kobo there is about 200 free books to choose.
Zinio, no freebies.
About PressDisplay; the biggest newspaper in Finland, Helsingin Sanomat is missing, only 11 smaller ones available. And yes, those free trainstation-takeaway-b****-publications cost also 0,99€ -no thanks.
First I was exited, but not any more. Newsroom is still my killer app.
Greediness kills a lot good ideas.
PressDisplay and Zinio now online in the Philippines. Finally!!!!

You will need the .apk files for those programs.
If the generous international users can dump their .apk files for us Americans, it would be greatly appreaciated. Sharing is caring.

The new market looks really good and works very smoothly for me.

If your device is rooted, you won't have access to the Movies section.

Working great on my N1... thanks for posting
I noticed that some apps vanish from My Apps in the new Market. I had about 4 apps to update in the old Market, two manual because of changed permissions. I left it as-is and installed the new Market. In the new Market, only the two apps without changed permissions appeared as updates in My Apps. The other two apps had vanished completely from the My Apps list. If I search for them manually they will still show up and I can update them though.
You may want to try clearing the data of the market app
Install the new market using the apk from android central.
I like a nice little improvement to the notification: it says "updating" instead of "installing" now
Yet, it is not performing fast enough... I feel laggy when using it. And the new UI looks like WP7 (though I personally like this new design )
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
so it's not just me thinking that it's really laggy ... maybe it's not the final version?
or maybe we now need a Dual-Core Phone to use the new Market
It runs fine for me on the N1 most of the time. The only lag I've noticed is when it's fetching the icons for the apps on the Staff Picks screen or similar. When the icons have been downloaded it runs smoothly. I like the Honeycomb/ICS-like design.
Downloaded Market from http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/07/12/download-the-new-android-market-v3-0-26-with-support-for-movies-and-books/ I am not sure when it will go live in my country so Downloaded from there..I love it but Kinda fell Lag.I think it is new so might take few days/weeks to fix it over it is SO COOL on SGS2 but I have a Problem I can't see Movies Option I think Movies option is not Available in my country yet
Yeah, movie section doesnt appear on my market using MIUI Rom.
Anybody else having issues with Facebook since switching markets? Logic says it can't effect of but since I updated the market, Facebook won't load. Happened immediately after installing the market.
don't be so quick to yell at google for blocking movies if you're rooted
it's pretty clear the movie studios wouldn't give them the licenses for the movies unless they blocked rooted devices
i mean, i'm not agreeing with the studios. cuz are they REALLY worried people are gonna ****ing steal ****ty low res videos off their cellphone? there's SO MANY other(better) ways to pirate these movies. but whatever
just incase anyone was woundering. MAXGO will not work on xoom either, which i dont think was a big shocker cause it was devl by the same people.
i removed device checker, and just like hbogo it FC when you try to login.
ahh man, you got my hopes up for a second there with that title... yeah no official maxgo, hbogo or netflix apps for the xoom.
maybe christmas...
Netflix works fine bruh...

Netflix works. Just pull it off your phone and side load it to your xoom. Works great! If u don't have android phone let me know if u need apk if u can't find it on here and il post the app
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
It seems strange that the best use case for these apps (Honeycomb tablets) seems to be the least developed... It seems especially strange that Netflix has the compatibility in place, but won't update the market's compatible apps so the app shows up when searching the market on a tablet.
Maxgo works well from the full site in flash. HBOGo however studders too much in flash to be usable. Like all here, I would appreciate a native app for Android supported on the Xoom. This continues to be a stick upon which Apple fanbois can use to continue beating upon us.
I just updated my stock ROM (manually checked), and I'm VERY EXCITED to report that Netflix now works! Thank you ASUS!

I'm pretty pumped about this. I live in Vietnam and pay for a VPN service (StrongVPN). Might be worth your while if you like netflix as much as I do. I'm happy to report netflix works for me now.
Strange, it won't work for me. I still have it installed from when it was briefly available a month or so back, but it still says my device isn't supported, won't stream, won't update, and won't find it in the market to re-download. That's with the FOTA that was just released in the US this morning.
...and keyboard lag is maybe slightly better, but still noticeable.
where did you guys download netflix program? I can not find it on the market.
I too cannot find it in the market...any hints on where you found it?
As for using Netflix from outside the US, I'm in the VI, I've used Hide My Ass VPN to get Netflix and other services that wouldn't let us stream content since we aren't in the US for quite some time with excellent results. I even posted instructions on how to get a Linksys E3000 router to connect to the service so all clients appear to be cominig from the states on my blog at Blendblog.net. Hope this helps!

Just before i left to work this morning, i noticed there was an update notification. Left it running as i headed out. (now wishing i had brought the damn thing..lol)
Yup, a friend/co-worker downloaded the update and his Netflix is now working. Can't want to get home and try mine. This may be the nail in the Galaxy Tab 10.1's coffin... Netflix was the only thing that was keeping me from returning the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and keeping the Transformer.
Confirmed. Working on mine, and looks great. Man, Asus rocks.

Does this require root? Can someone post some screenshots? I am at work and won't have the tablet for a couple hours.
This new Market version looks exactly like the phone version.
Why have they changed the interface.
The previous one looked great.
Previous version - 1.0.27
this looks just like the new market on the android phones. i dont really like how it looks..... i wish there was a way to hide the movies/books from the market because i doubt i will ever buy/rent a book or a movie from the app store. i noticed no difference in performance. im sticking with the old market for now, but thanks for the download

Precisely the reason I renamed marketupdater on my phone, and will probably be doing it on my tab too.

I tried out the new Market app but had to remove it. It caused Earth and Legend to crash on load and I read a report that it causes Dungeon Defenders to crash too. I'm guessing these apps may have some type of protection that calls the Market app?

I'm now running this new market on my a500. I must say that the old market feels cumbersome and clumsy.this is way more suited to hc and is feels streamlined...
I love it on my DInc2 it took a while to get used to but I can't stand the old market anymore.
I haven't run into any problems with crashing apps. Earth runs fine. I'm using honeyvillain's rom.
Does this improve any problems with the Honeycomb Market, like reviewing apps direct from the tablet?

Portrait mode is sweet although the market is really crying out for a customized view, wierdly though the old market is still available alongside the new market on my tab 10.1(overcome rom). Accessing app details is not very intuitive, clicking the icon for the selected app shows details but there is no visual prompt to suggest this(could be a BOB issue). No issues launching any apps so far.
What's the best way to install this? I would think to remove Vending.apk from system/apps, rename this file to vending.apk and put it into the apps folder...is that right?
Update: Nope, don't need to do all that. Just download and install
Update: I LIKE! Portrait mode, FINALLY able to click a screen shot for a larger image, everything flows very well, seems like this market version is even better suited for a tablet than a phone. Thumbs up!
Thanks for the download MJ-12!

Definitely a better market than what was built in. It is a lot faster than the old one, which is especially impressive considering the very limited internet I have access to right now.
Havn't ran in to any problems with it so far.
Downloaded this And I still have old market and new market. 2 different icons.
