I see the compatible apps tab in the android wear watch app and there's androidwearapps.org, but then I can type in "wear" on Google play, and then more apps appear. Any easy centralized place for ALL the available apps?

This is the list provided by Google, but it definitely doesn't include all of the apps available:

I have been searching for "android wear" (in quotes for an exact match) in the play store and finding most of them.
 
Thanks so much! It'll be nice once all the kinks are ironed out...

ah good ol google and their beta releases to the public. one would think something simple like a dedicated app portal would be an easy thing to check off of the launch list. but no...
 
They've added a few more in the past week.

I had lunch at Google HQ with the Android Wear Developer liason. Google has no immediate plans to allow users to search by Android Wear Compatible apps despite being able to mark apps as such when uploading new apps. They want to be able to closely control which apps make their curated listed (the one you find from within the Android Wear App).

We put in a request to be on the list with our fitness app, VimoFit, but have yet to make the list. Our app has been live for 2 weeks and is designed specifically for Andoird Wear.

Long story short, the best way to find apps is to search specific categories. Search "Android Wear fitness" or "Android Wear watch face." New apps are going up daily.
 
From the categories section of Google Play, you can find an Android Wear section with all the top charts and hand picked apps.
