Remote installation of Android apps

I want to allow user to install my app directly from my web-site, not through the Android market. I'm working on a specific non-phone android device, which can't be connected to the Android market. how can I accomplish such a thing ?

The device can download the APK files like a normal file. After that, the user can open it and gets prompted to install it by checking the apps permissions. This required the unknown source preference (Preferences->Applications->Development usually) to be checked.

If you want to create some sort of drive-by-download/install: Thats not possible for (obvious) security reasons.
