Please tell me though that you understand the vast, HUGE difference between:

1) Clicking on an application named Marketplace that's already on your phone to find new apps to install

versus

2) Opening up IE Mobile and browsing to a developers site - a developer that you already have to know about and already know what they offer, and hoping they actually offer a mobile site - all to find a CAB file to download

There's absolutely no comparison between the two...
