And finding apk files amidst the swash of spam download sites is another nightmare. Though, that's not Entourage's fault. Still, the company must address their app installation problems, or the device will fail at market.
Yeah, even with Adblock active in Firefox those app sites are awful. The folks at enTourage say they're working on their own app store. Who knows what the timetable is.

I hope they're not banking on academic adoption by September. Even if it suddenly became perfect, today, I don't think there's time for that to happen. Except on an individual basis: a student here, a faculty member there.

Regardless, I do hope enTourage has sufficient funding to get through these early stages. Owning an orphaned device would stink.
