In short, market place goes nuts and forgets the app is installed.

Well, I've seen several more confusing things related to Market installs and upgrades in the last two months or so. On my own phones I've had several duplicated download going on, but most of the time it sorts itself once the download succeeds. On a few occasions upgrades (even of my own apps and Google Goggles/Maps) have kept failing for up to 24 hours until finally succeeding - in some cases I've imagined that a reboot has helped, but that may have been coincidence.

Still, it *HAS* sorted itself after semi-reasonable time in my personaly experince, but a few days ago I had to help one of my users who had got stuck in upgrading for several days. After trying all the tricks I did myself, we finally resorted to wiping is account settings and re-registering with market (same account). This helped. (The next step would have been a full factory reset.)

This is somewhat alarming. The Market *SERVER* can't be bogged down with users already, can it? I'd suspect a buggy old Market app, but this particular user was running stock 2.2 on a HTC Desire, and I had my problems on stock NexusOne (2.2) and stock Milestone (2.1update1). That's rather up to date IMHO.
