Bug Description

According to README.Debian the graphical tool for configuring Prey has been removed, and you need to enter key and api manually into config.
The problem comes when you buy a new device, because you cannot add it from web, as just redirects to download page.
And since the config toos has been removed, it's IMPOSSIBLE to configure a new device using packaged version.

The GUI configuration tool is back in Prey 0.6.2, available in Trusty. I already have three devices in my free account, so I cannot check if the website has still no button to add a new device.
