Anyone have issues with apps not updating when updated via the app store?

It doesn't happen all the time, but it's frequent enough to be annoying. I'll open up the App Store on my iPhone and find that I have a number of updates. I go to install them (and can actually see them being updated on the iPhone home screen) and find out they really haven't been installed.

Opening up the program reveals no changes and / or the previous version number of the app. Opening up the App Store program again, it says there are the same updates available to my apps. Wash, rinse, repeat.

It seems like the only solution when this happens is to download the apps via iTunes on my MacBook Pro and then sync the phone up. It's kind of an annoying experience!

This happened to me yesterday with 2 apps. The weird thing was it happened on both my desktop in itunes and on my iphone (i updated them separately since i'm having other problems w/my desktop) and it was with the same 2 apps.
