Hi Wayne, hopefully there will be a better solution implemented at some 
point. For now, I've been making my devices writeable, syncing with 
owncloud, /and/ enjoying over-the-air updates and updates to apps. I'm 
not sure if this will change at some point, but for now it works. Note 
that you might not have owncloud in the ppa with ota 4 - I can't confirm 
this either way. Prior to this, you had to manually download packages 
not in the rtm, or add a ppa for it. Good luck with it.
