Al, thanks for the reply. It's on my own server (a Linux-based Apache
server), and it's a simple A HREF that goes straight to the file in the same
directory. No redirection or anything.

I tried it on an ADP1 and a G1, both on the T-Mobile network, and it didn't
work. The emulator worked fine. The symptoms point to a proxy.

Does the URL you're downloading from use a redirect or something similar
to get to the apk?

Many free file hosting or website hosting packages use a loading page
and some type of redirect (a Meta refresh tag being one example), and
there have been problems with those on the device (see
http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/b4fffb26e83d9653
for one example).
