I like to keep thing "neat and arranged" :D so when I download programs from MARKET and delete them I want them to go away so I see ONLY what I kept.

Is there a way to remove UNINSTALLED apps from the "DOWNLOAD" list in the "Market" so all I have left is what I want to keep installed and not what I removed?

The more I play with this MyTouch the more I like it and can't wait for something new to come to AT&T. I just bought this used because I sold my iPhone to wait for a new one but I'm getting hooked. Reminds me of the old PALM TREO days.
 
First off dont download PORN apps and you wont be worried about it :p!!! Im just joking. I think you actually have to reboot the phone completely to get rid of the list. Which kind of sucks because its a lot of work having to go back through and redownload everything you want! I had an app that I liked and i accidentally deleted it from the phones database instead of uninstalling through the android marketplace. The consequence of this was the android marketplace thought i still had it downloaded, so when i tried to redownload it I couldnt. I had like 15 other apps on the phone i liked at the time and didnt want to go through the process i explained just to get that one app back....

How could I have guessed that was going to be the response I get. :D

Actually all I want to remove are the ones marked UNINSTALLED. I haven't had the phone long enough to find the "good stuff!"
