The "NEW" category in the App Store (both on iTunes and on the phone) is total BS. There are MUCH newer apps that just came out a day or two ago that aren't displayed there.

Total BS, Apple. Show us the brand new stuff. This also sucks for developers, how are they supposed to get their stuff seen?!

EDIT: Even if you sort by "release date" in iTunes, it's not showing everything. SoGoMo, for example, was released July 6th. Why is it not shown on the "new" list?
 
sorting by release date in iTunes doesn't always get the job done either. I noticed that there are a few apps that showed up in the last couple days for me that weren't there over the weekend... And they have a listed release date of several days or more ago (so they're placed where they should be as if they were there days ago). So it seems like some are taking longer to propagate to the list.
