Got updates for Foursquare and New stand via notification in the hub - instead of manually. OMG - maybe now it works.

Yeah I had the same thought when they came through!

Did you update your BB World prior to this? Wondering if the BBWorld update fixed this.

Mine did also. Must have been the new update of BlackBerry world.

Working, yes. But not as it should or as had hoped it would. I got those updates manually houuuuuuuuuurrrrrsss ago. Shouldn't be a delay. When an update is there, it should show. Not at some timed interval. But then again, this has always been an issue for BlackBerry World so I doubt it will be fixed indefinitely.

Haven't updated my BBW yet and I got notification updates for Foursquare and Newsstand. Also noticed if I open the notification and tap the link to the update in BBW the notification disappears, even if you don't update.

Apparently, from what I was told in a previous thread on the same issue, is that the Hub is supposed to poll for updates only once a week in order to avoid driving people nuts with constant update notifications but, let's be honest, there are a bunch of small bugs with brand new apps running on a brand new ecosystem that devs are going to want to have fixed sooner rather than later for their users. Waiting a week is too long, especially at the beginning, and most basic users will not have figured out how to check for updates manually and will be stuck with a buggy app.

To solve this problem, I think the frequency of updates should be user-selectable : hourly, daily, weekly, push, etc., and the default setting when you first pick-up the phone should be on 'push' so that devs can get those needed updates out to their users without delay.
