Currently, this part of the equation is not there. If you run Einstein
under OS X, you can drag and drop packages onto the Einstein window to
install them - it's a pretty slick way of doing installations. Sadly,
this is not available on the other platforms as yet.
Import and export of data is going to depend on when Paul & Co. get
communication working between Einstein and the host file system.

Oh, I'm sure that something will surface sooner or later.

Four platforms, if you include Victor's PepperPad.
