Okay, before your head explodes trying to figure out just what the heck is going on here, let me just tell you that no — this is not a joke and no — this is not inception. The Android Market from within the Android Market is actually the tablet version of the Android Market specifically for devices with Android 3.0 Honeycomb and up. See? Perfect explanation. You can now stop looking for your totem.
Not sure why I never came across this sooner but there it is for anyone with a tab and may have missed it. Protip: Don’t try to uninstall the Market from within the Market. This may cause a rip in the time space continuum, resulting in reality imploding on itself. (Not really but okay). Cheers!
