Android Market will be updated on devices running Android 1.6 or higher

According to email from The Android Market Team, Android Market will be updated on devices running Android 1.6 or higher.

* The details page for every app will now utilize and display the app’s “Promotional Graphic” assets at the top.

* Users will be able to filter applications by content rating. Applications or games without a rating will be treated as “Mature”.

* The purchase refund window will be reduced to 15 minutes.

* The maximum size for .apk files will be increased to 50MB, from the current 25MB.

* Market will support filtering based on screen sizes and densities, as well as on GL texture compression formats.

* If app includes wallpapers or widgets, Market will automatically add them to new “dynamic” categories.
