Btw, if the name is right, you can install the TTS voices from the file manager.
It worked fine...
...until the Reader crashed and nuked the complete installed apps system; nothing ran and all showed 8 bytes in size. A reboot resulted in a FC loop of the launcher.
Total loss; I had to start from scratch again.
I'm not touching any of the PB apps until the next firmware release, if ever.
If it happens again I'm going back to 2.0.5.

You need adb to see the directory since its on an ext2 partition. Maybe thats why installation is disabled... they changed the install location but maybe installing is going to the wrong directory.
/sd_data/packages is where both the dictionaries and tts voices go. I had the US male tts directory from the 2.0.5 firmware zip file "tts.en.us.male". The voice files on the website are in a PBI file which seems to be a password protected zip file. I tried installing the UK english pbi files from file manager on the IQ but it didn't work.
I created directories for my dictionaries /pb_data/packages/dic.oxford and /pb_data/packages/dic.mwc and put my mwc.dic and oxford.dic files in the appropriate directory. I also put an _scriptInstall in each that I modifed from the original english dictionary directory but I am not sure if that is needed.
