Yep, there is a fix for this. Not sure if all apps show up, but they should.

Step 1. Boot into maemo.
Step 2. Mount the android partition like you did during installation
Code:
sudo gainroot
mount -o noatime,rw /dev/mmcblk1p2 /and
(i guess you still had the /and dir. if you didn't, mkdir /and.
Step 3. Open up the file /and/system/build.prop in leafpad, or another text editor.
Code:
leafpad /and/system/build.prop
Step 4. Look for the line containing ro.build.fingerprint. Replace that line so it looks like this:
Code:
ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/voles/sholes/sholes:2.1-update1/ESE81/29593:user/release-keys
Step 5. Save the file, un-mount the /and partition to make sure the changes get written, and reboot.
Code:
umount /and
If your getting an error that the disk is in use, close the terminal first, then open terminal again, then type the above command.

The app market will now think we're an official android device and give us access to all apps.

Oh, p.s. I only tested this on myself, so please report back if it works (but took it from another forum that discussed the unofficial Froyo rom for the Motorola Droid, and it worked for them too, so i guess it should work.)
