This just in from the Linux Journal New Projects section (and Department of Passive-Voice Verbiage):
Keryx -- Packaging Solution for the Net-Deprived http://keryx.betaserver.org/ "The Keryx Project started as a way for users with dial-up or low-bandwidth Internet to be able to download and update packages on their Debian-based distribution of Linux. Mainly built for Ubuntu, Keryx allows users to select packages to install and check for updates and downloads those packages onto a USB key." Reading between the lines and checking the website, Keryx sounds like it's just slightly to the left of alpha-quality, so it's probably not suited for utter EMC / Linux / Ubuntu novices. However, if you already know How Stuff Works and simply want to schlep all the requisite .debs out to the shop in one go, this might be the ticket.
