app store updates seem iffy...

I went on to the app store to check for updates to my installed apps and was pleasantly surprised to find updates for facebook (which I can now finally recommend over the website) and tap tap revenge. The problem is that the app store is supposed to notify you of updates on its own with a numeric badge of how many are available to you (like mail) but it didn't, I had to check. Seconds after finding these updates, before I could install them, they vanished. I had to refresh a few times until I found them again and quickly installed before they could vanish once more. My wife still sees no updates available and she has both of those apps... I hope they fix the update process soon...

I had a similar issue yesterday. Itunes notified me of updates but nada on the phone.

Today however i got the App Store icon showing one update for Tap Tap Revenge.

MobileMe seems to be having a few teething issues too.

While not the way we'd all like it I think if we just give it a few weeks the major bugs will be gradually iron out (fingers crossed)
