Weird google map problem

[mikexoom]

For some reason Google maps has decided to download itself-----and it won't stop!!!! It's been downloading for about a day now. It doesn't show any progress bar. The cancel button is dimmed and doesn't work Even rebooting doesn't stop... well it does actually stop it while it's off...but it just starts again as soon as it gets power. Anyone have any ideas?

I've had a couple apps do that on my phone, I usually kill the market task. But see as you rebooted xoom not sure what the deal is.

I have found that by going to the market and selecting the app in question, you can cancel the update. Then when you start the update, it occurs normally.

This pointed me in the right direction at least. I went to the market from the browser but it said that google maps was already installed. When I clicked on the button "installed" it acted like I had clicked install. I sent it to my Xoom and it downloaded. Now it's sitting in a catagory "not installed" but at least it's not downloading any more:-) -:-)
