I believe I have read somewhere that once you sign an application and
publish it with a specific keystore you MUST use the same keystore for other
updates.  Unfortunately I think the only option is to release the update as
a new application (put a note in the old one telling customers to get the
new one instead).

I should certainly hope not!  That would throw security right out the
window...
