I have a real google account so I'm trying to figure out if I should be able to get paid apps (ie, did I do something wrong), because I am not seeing them.

As of now you can not buy the paid apps through the market the way we have it set up. But any apps previously purchased will show up.

Spoke too soon. Download is now super flaky. Dunno what to try next. They start then
fail. Before they started and never stopped.
Fugo!
Thanks X12wiked your walk through worked first time. I now have Gmail and other apps plus a game I purchased on my phone. I was so pleased I registered just to express my thanks.
Quick question - Has anyone got google maps/earth via the market - I've got evrything else including street view?

The bit I am stuck at is in bold red above. I have followed the instructions to the letter, but see no /data/data directory to place the pref file into.Download the market from here http://db.tt/WkoKjgb and as soon as you get it downloaded install it straight from your sdcard. As soon as you have the market installed open it and accept the terms of service, then close it. Go to settings, click applications, then manage apps. Click on the running tab. Scroll down and find market and select it. Click on clear cache, then click on force stop. Back up and find the Google services framework, clear the data for this one, then force stop it as well. Next, download this file http://db.tt/xZbIjGa and copy it into /data/data/com.android.vending/shared_prefs which will overwrite the pre-existing vending prefs file. Now reboot. As soon as you're powered back up, start trying to open the market. It WILL error out on you a few times but it will work. When you get the market to load finally, go back to settings, apps, manage apps, you need to clear markets cache again then force stop it, then go back to the Google services framework, click clear data again, then force stop. REBOOT. As soon as you are powered back up go to the market. Viola, it works....
My /data directory is emptymeggiedude

Yeah thx, was not using androot was the issue - oops.
Got it working, but then the next reboot it took several attempts again to get the Market working without error. Is his normal. Should I expect to have to have to start the app a few times following each reboot?

You might want to reset the device to factory, then start fresh with root and the follow the steps. If not now, you will later when something else doesn't work correctly as is often encountered with these devices when loading multiple applications on an already questionable firmware.

So, can someone clarify if Paid apps show up? Has anyone gotten this working??
I rooted and go the market and I only see Free apps. But, some searches I am doing for free apps such as xscope brower or adobe flash come back with nothing. On my phone they come up in the app store. So, even free apps aren't appearing properly. I find it very odd that a search on my phone shows 21 hits only shows 7 on the tablet. Strange!
