All the apps are showing basically the same download size, give or take a MB or so. Looks like it's only me with this issue and a reflash would solve it, but I can live with it for now.
That shows as 3.4MB here, so yes, it sounds like there's an issue on your device. You could try disabling all the repositories, exiting App manager, then going back in & re-enabling them again. This would force a complete refresh of the metadata, which may help.
