How do I get my apps back after a factory reset?

I just did a factory reset on my Thunderbolt and the market only shows 7 apps. Where's the rest?

The market app will only show your paid apps for redownload. I've noticed that the web-based market (market.android.com), keeps track of all your downloads, paid and free. Go there and hit the install buttons to send them all to your phone.
