Yes, I'm pretty sure this is a known iTunes (on device) issue. It doesn't accurately reflect what you have installed in all situations, although be assured it does know what you have and have not paid for under the covers. It won't charge you twice for something you bought when / if you try and install it again...

For example, I have the Sky News free app installed, but it doesn't show as such. However BBC iPlayer shows as installed.
