RUMOR: ANDROID MARKET DISCRIMINATING AGAINST CUSTOM ROMS

There is a rumor floating around that Google's recently launched Android Marketplace website is not recognizing devices running custom ROMs. Engadget ran a test where the Marketplace successfully recognized a Desire Z running a factory install of Froyo (v2.2), but failed to recognize an HTC Hero running a custom version of Froyo from FroydVillain.

The Hero was logged in and syncing from the same Google ID just used to access the Android Marketplace on the device.

Is anyone else out there having problems with the new Google Android Marketplace?
