What's New?
I've looked through it, and from what I can tell, it has some sort of additions related to the new functionality for restricting user access to Google Play. I suspect this is used in multi-user situations, where the primary user doesn't want secondary ones to be able to install things, but I haven't been able to confirm it just yet on the Nexus 7. Maybe there is a new menu that shows up in Android 4.3...
Another theory proposed by commenter Markus is that it's possible that this new functionality is meant for restricting Play Store's usage on devices that aren't licensed to use it and don't come with it pre-installed, which would... suck, though I don't see how Google could enforce it.
There is a new Activity called com.google.android.finsky.activities.AccessRestrictedActivity and this related new string:
<string name="limited_user_text">"You don't have permission to use Google Play Store."</string>
That's about it based on a quick teardown but if you notice anything else, please drop us a line below.

I have not but my wife did on her stock phone.
Easiest way:
Just delete the data from your Market app in Settings, and the next time you open your Market app normally, it'll update itself, straight from Google's servers.

It updates to the play market but not the tabbed play market. I suspect it is because I am on ics.

TB just issued an update to support it but they also left a note:
What's in this version:
• Supports Google Play Store 3.5.15. Please note: Play Store is capricious with Market links because it relies more on Google's servers. If you want more control we encourage you to ask Google. It's their app. Let them know the goal you want to achieve. Once they provide a way, we'll give you full control of it!
• Improved app backup code: supports APK files with non-standard names.
• [PRO] Added "Disable Market app Auto Updater".
• Speed optimization & minor GUI tweaks.
• Updated translations.

I'm now using JB but the update still download the entire apk instead of only the changes.. Or am I missing something?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
Dunno if they've started that yet. And I don't think that's JB specific iirc. Thought I remember it being 2.3 and above. Its all handled on Google's end.

Sounds like it is enabled on all apps by default on anything 2.3 and up:
For Android devices with the Google Play, we launched the following at Google I/O today:
Smart app updates: For Android 2.3, Gingerbread devices and up, when there is a new version of an app in Google Play, only the parts of the app that changed are downloaded to users’ devices. On average, a smart app update is a third the size of a full apk update. This means your users save bandwidth and battery and the best part? You don’t have to do a thing. This is automatically enabled for all apps downloaded from Google Play.

No. No release date. My best guess is that it will coincide with the actual release of JB later this month.

Wth is this and why does it automatically install in my phone?
After a quick search:
Google Play services - Google services for Android apps
Google Play services lets Android apps from the Google Play Store integrate with Google+ and Google Accounts. To work correctly, some apps may require Google Play services to be present and up to date.
Google Play services is usually updated automatically on Android devices. You can also install or update it manually from the Google Play Store.

Really man, you just got done ripping somebody apart for not posting in the correct place and you put this here!! Does this not also belong in the Q&A forum? Maybe quit calling other people noobs are start reading on your own.
just released today, get it here! link below...
What's New
The most notable and immediately apparent new feature is the long overdue ability to remove apps you've previously downloaded from the All Apps list. If you like to try a lot of apps, that list is likely very cluttered. With the new Google Play, you can trim it to your heart's content.
Update #1: You can multi-select by long-pressing any app in the list and then tapping more apps, then delete them all in one go (added 2 new screenshots demonstrating it).
Update #2: The new Play Store now keeps track of your location in lists, including My Apps and All Apps, so when you click into an app and back, it drops you into the same spot. I had variable luck with this, and it didn't seem to work in All Apps at first, but I just reproduced it on both the EVO LTE and the Nexus 7. Brilliant.
Update #3: The notification icon that shows up when you have app updates has changed, and notifications are now expandable. I've added more screenshots showing the differences.

It took me a minute to go through my whole list of downloaded apps (I tried out just about everything lol) but finally...now down to a manageable list. Still not exiting back to last place (got to go through the list from the top) but it is ok. Now if we could sort the way we want (download date, alphabetical, paid, free, etc.), I think I'll be set.

I second that! It was so annoying!
I installed the apk thru root explorer but I can't do the long press apps to delete from list?

hey guys great find!
however I am running MIUI and when i go to install the apk it says that there is already an existing package by the same name with a confliciting signature already installed.. i tried to go to into the system and del / rename the market apk but could not find it in the /system/apps.
does anyone know how i can install this on my phone or am i sol for now?
thanks!
Mine allowed me to directly update it. But Titanium Backup is going to be the easiest way to remove the old version.

I adb pushed the apk to /system/app:
adb push nameofgplay.apk /system/app/nameofgplay.apk
but now my search won't work. I'll press the search button but nothing. Also, the suggested results doesn't pop up, either.
thanks
i downloaded it now...
finally. I just talked to someone working with Google about 2 of these issues myself personally 2 weeks ago.

It may be installed in /data/app on your phone. Or it is visually named something else. When I went searching for vending.apk all I saw was phonesky.apk. I identified it by the PlayStore icon next to it. I'm not sure, but I think devs can name it anything they want with no ill effects on functionality.
