UT Progress
===========

I  might  noted  here  in  some   of  previous  posts  that  during  an
unsuccessful update I  lost the OpenStore [1] application  on my Ubuntu
Touch [2]. It was a problem because there is no CLI tool to install (or
remove) packages on  the Ubuntu Touch (that's an another  reason for me
to dislike this table computing at all).

Fortunately  there is  a UT  Tweak tool  available (and  I ahve  hat it
already installed) and  it allows to install  *.click packages locally.
So I have  downloaded the package for the OpenStore  and have installed
it. So it works now.

Why I'm spending so much time with a device that I have little use for?
Well, it's light and  plat enough to be carried outside.  I plan tu use
is as a  book/wikipedia reader and maybe a music  player on train trips
(I'm the optimist and I'm planning some long train trips now - they are
mostly work related).

Thus I put a lot ow EPUB/PDF/... files on the device and also installed
the Kiwix [3].  It requires a data  file so I have  installed the Czech
Mini Wikipedia  filawithout images  (>700MB). It  should be  enough for
now.  I also  have a  Geocaching  application here  but I  have had  no
opportunity to try it outside, yet (I also think that tablet is too big
for this use so I might never try geocaching with it).

Anyway, the tablet is updated and ready to be used.

P.S. I still thing that the old (good) HP TouchPad with old Cyanogenmod
is snappier than this one (the BQ Aquaris M10)...
