I'd like to get a BQ phone but unfortunately they don't work on the US
frequencies (T-Mobile).  My only option is to convert a Nexus 5.  After
playing around with the M10, I think I'm going to hold off until it can
do everything the N5 can do. 

Specifically I need Openvpn, which the OTA 10.1 adds, but with
Username/password auth.  Maybe there is some way to install a generated
config file?  I haven't really looked into it other than the GUI on the
tablet, and the quick glance it didn't look like I could do it like
"OpenVPN for Android".  Here is a link to the blackvpn
<https://www.blackvpn.com/setup/android/openvpn-for-android/> setup
instructions.  Username/password authentication. 

Some other apps I would really like:
Voip integration (Tablet phone app should include voip calling, I use
voip.ms on phone, computer, tablets)
Kodi
VLC (can't stream any local .mkv files)
Owncloud (auto upload photos)
Amazon Videos
Netflix (of course)
Firefox (touch version, i.e. Firefox for Android)
Dekko -group email by conversation, integrate with notifications and
check email while sleeping (push notification?)
