Mac App Store now live as part of Mac OS X 10.6.6

Mac OS X 10.6.6 has been made available for download, and it should be waiting for you right now in Software Update. Once you install 10.6.6, the Mac App Store, in all its glory, will reveal itself to you. Apple's launching the Mac App Store with over 1,000 apps today, but we expect to see this grow over the next few months as developers sign on.

Unfortunately, downloading the 148MB update is the only way to get the glossy new Mac App Store, packed with apps like the iLife and iWork suites, Aperture 3, and yes, Angry Birds (which just days ago arrived on Windows as well). Of course, we're downloading now and will be getting some serious hands on time with the new Apple app market in the coming days.

You can find out more about the Mac App Store here.
