Be patient, OTA update will be distributed to anyone, but it takes some time. The same with updates, one get it on monday and his neighbor (same operator, same phone) one week later. Not sure, if it will be distributed also to cooked ROMS, but all official ROMs should get it soon.

Android market is just an app that should be updatable to everyone at the same like - like angry birds or something.

It's not out to everyone but if you want it, you can download the apk and copy it over to your SD card and install, just got to look but i saw it on pocketnow.com website.

After a fair few tries, I found that Gologle's advice, which I posted above, didn't work for me. But I've resorted to another tip I found on the web (I'd credit them if I could remember where) which does seem to have worked.
Go into Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications -> Running (or 'All' if Market isn't currently running)
Tap on the Market app and then clear the cache and clear the data. I was worried by the warning about losing databases, account details etc., but it turns out that nothing is lost - for me at least. I then pressed 'Force stop'.
When I re-started the Market app it still ran the old version, but after doing a few other things on the phone, I went back to the Market and it updated itself, remembering all my account details, the apps I'd downloaded etc.
