Yes that looks like the one :)

The one I used to play was non-colour but this is essentially the same format/story etc but with a more polished overall product :)

Lol yeah I just completed it, however I did add some gameshark codes so I could have 1 of each of the starters.
 
!!! really? where did you read that? :confused::mad:

Updates have been coming fast and furious to Google's Android Market for a couple weeks now, but this is the biggest shift yet -- that rusty tab-based interface is out, replaced with a rotating carousel of downloadable content, and a single scrolling pane of info for each and every app. What's more, it seems that Mountain View has heard the cries of game companies in particular, as it's got a couple of very special changes largely targeted at them -- the size cap on individual apps has been upped to 50MB, and Android Market's famous 24-hour return policy is no more. You'll still have 15 minutes to decide whether you want a piece of software or prefer a refund, perhaps long enough to give it a basic test, but there's no longer enough time to finish a game in one sitting before slyly giving it a pass. There's also a number of behind-the-scenes changes that should help make sure you only see apps your device can actually run, based on screen size, pixel density and OpenGL support. Google's pushing the update to every Android 1.6-and-above device over the next couple of weeks, so you can expect your app purchasing world to turn upside-down in time for Christmas cheer.

Update: There are also two new categories being added: widgets and live wallpapers.
 
Going to be a new market update out in the next few weeks for all devices running Android 1.6 +, which changes the UI completely as well as some other things being included and changed:

And if you can't wait, some people have already got the apk uploaded and running on their devices, although some seem to have no problems and others seem to have a few problems:

Has anyone got the Winamp wireless sync to work yet? It refuses to discover my phone.

1) close winamp on both devices
2) plug handheld into PC
3) set to usb tethering
4) disable firewall
5) open winamp on PC
6) open winamp on handheld
7) discover
8) pair
9) unplug
10) turn on firewall
11) oohhhmmm a deee boom boom

Is there any way to log what application is using what power? I'm using current widget to see why my total power usage seems erratic. Usually it idles at <10ma power draw but last night at 00:14 something completely raped the battery... (I was asleep from 11:30pm.) This is not the only increased power draw I've noticed recently, some days it would idle at 50ma and it wouldn't make it through a waking day even if it is barely used!

Is there any way to log what application is using what power? I'm using current widget to see why my total power usage seems erratic. Usually it idles at <10ma power draw but last night at 00:14 something completely raped the battery... (I was asleep from 11:30pm.) This is not the only increased power draw I've noticed recently, some days it would idle at 50ma and it wouldn't make it through a waking day even if it is barely used!

TBH i've had a similar issues since i've owned HTC phones (going back to the good ol' HTC Universal). I always assumed it was related to losing signal and the phone struggling to reconnect (causing a massive battery drain).

Pretty damned annoying!
