<rant> I have experienced the download issues starting from when the Android Market was first launched till today (last 2 downloads that did not start were 2 days ago). I'm a software developer myself so I understand that software will always have bugs. But to be honest - this one is beyond me. There has been a critical totally blocking issue for almost a year now, and it's still not fixed. I understand that fixing bugs can take time but one year for this specific bug? After one year, Market still can't do (in some cases) the one thing that it's supposed to do - download apps. I click on an app, it stays at "starting download" and it stays that way till I restart my phone. Canceling and restarting the download is not helping - turning on/off radio is also not helping. It happens over 2g, 3g and WiFi - so it doesn't look like a "network issue" to me. I have posted logs about it to b.android.com (as have many others). I have complained about it on the mailing lists (as have others). I have talked about it in the IRC channel (as have others), but there's no visible progress on this issue. If the problem is that they (by "they", I mean Googlers working on the Market) can't reproduce it, then I (and I guess many others) would be willing to post logs and test it 24/7 to get this one finally resolved but nobody has ever asked :(. If nothing else, they could at least give us some progress information.. either "Hey, we know where the problem is and we're fixing it currently." or "Hey, we can not reproduce it ourselves, could you please help us by testing some specific cases or posting some specific logs or testing some specific dev builds of the Market" or even this would be OK: "Hey, we don't know where the problem is and we don't care, we hope it fixes itself at some point". </rant>
