If you get a lot of time on your hands...would you mind outlining the steps for novice users for how to install it?
I want to see if the sound quality issues are gone in 0.4

If the last post was too simple and you prefer something a little more complicated, you can do what I did over ssh from my laptop to my Nokia N800 (where the Nokia is at 192.168.0.5 on my network):
ssh root@192.168.0.5 'cd /media/mmc2/apps;wget "http://nikosapi.org/software/panucci/panucci_0.3~pre0.4-2_all.deb"; apt-get update; apt-get install python2.5-gtk2 python2.5-gstreamer python2.5-dbus python2.5-hildon python2.5-gnome python2.5-mutagen python2.5-osso gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-faad gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-mad ogg-support; dpkg -i /media/mmc2/apps/panucci_0.3~pre0.4-2_all.deb'
Mind you.. you'd still need to enter a password (unless you set up a keypair automated login) and you'll still need to hit Y and press enter at one point. I don't recommend this for most folks because it pre-requires openssh or dropbear, a remote root login and I usually suggest you understand everything being done before you just blindly do something somebody on the Internet tells you to do.
example: If you're happy and you know it, press ALT+F4!
IT'S A TRAP!!
My apologies for the distraction.

And when I get taken to the Application manager I get an error that these files are missing:

As Nick mentioned in the first post, though, you need to make sure you have those prerequisite apps installed. You can do that by using sudo or ssh (or whatever method you use) to get root on your tablet, then run the apt-get command he posted.. THEN go ahead and do the plain old install from the app manager.
Alternatively, preferably, Nick can list those apps as dependencies in the deb and the app manager will go out and install them as well.

Err, they are listed in the deb, thats why app manager is having a issue...
Nokia, in their questionable wisdom, made app manger not try to download deps when manually installing something.
Note, that in freemantle, the ability to install a deb manually have been removed from app manager. So there it will be dpkg -i only...

HA! Even I was able to figure it out
I installed a sudoroot app that allowed me to open a shell in which, I assume, I am temporarily granted root priviledges.
In that shell I apt-get installed the missing dependencies and after that...I was able to install the deb.
I'm rather proud of myself seeing as I have ZERO Linux knowledge
Maybe I can upgrade my rating below to..hmm.. 4/100 soon?
QUESTION: Is there a way to, in the X terminal, to bring up the latest executed command to the prompt again? I find that I re-typed a lot and it would be great to sometimes bring up the last command (a la F3) and just modify and execute..if possible.

And thanks, it's a "small non-existing step for most of you - but a giant one for me".
(I am tonight putting aside some time to start reading my Linux for Dummies book. No, I'm not kidding. I got it
