Otherwise this process is going to be a whole lot less picnic-like than I'd hope for.

A 400-800KB COD patch is really that bad? Pre-4.0 versions of the OS should be considered as unsupported (Microsoft doesn't support Windows Server 2000 and prior, for example) and won't receive patches - update the device if you can. I honestly wouldn't be too concerned with the OS updates and look more at the smaller patches as fixes.
Otherwise, RIM does have a manual solution available, although it's not necessarily a good solution (but it works).
