You might consider creating a "beta" release version of your app. That's 
what we do. Before releasing a major update (about once a month) we post 
the beta to the market and ask for comments. If there's a problem, we'll 
know within a day or two and can fix it easily. People are a lot more 
forgiving of a problem when the app is a beta than a production app. Both 
the beta and production app can reside together (different package names) 
so there's little risk to the user if a problem does arise.

On average, we get between 1000 and 5000 beta testers so by the time the 
beta goes to production, it's pretty bullet proof.
