You need to install MobileTerminal first, but then login as root ("su root") and do the following:
apt-get install <packagename> -d The files are saved to /var/cache/apt/archives
You can back this file up via SFTP, and install from it using the following commandline:
dpkg -i <package.deb>
Note that <packagename> and <package.deb> will likely be different.

Thanks, onlydarksets. I'm going to add a link to your post in the Tips thread. One of these days, I hope to create an FAQs thread like I did in the i760 forum so we easily can find answers to FAQs.
