It could also be hidden due to the fact that the Hero runs Android 1.6. Some apps (like imeem) are now officially supported on 1.6 and above. Kind of odd since they obviously work on 1.5 (or at least did).

I think you mean because hero runs 1.5? Any apps that get updated exclusively with 1.6+ SDK won't show up anymore in our 1.5 marketplace, or so says a developer I asked.

I had noticed that one of my downloaded apps had a description mentioning it being a newer version, but my version installed was older. My list of downloaded apps wasn't prompting for an update and I couldn't find the app listed in the marketplace anymore. Emailed the dev and was told what I mentioned above.
