Once again I have to say thanks to the BoxTone guys, especially Jon, coz this tool has saved me hours, seriously. Fantastic marketing exercise as if I am ever given money for Mobile Mgt s/ware, guess where I'll be going first :->

You and me both, I'd go there now except that my rollout is too small for what they usually support with their product. I met Joel director of marketing at their WES booth last year, seemed like a nice guy and I definitely think their monitoring package is a solid product from the demos I've seen.
I like others appreciate this GUI, I can quickly easily fire it up without any command lines with switches, etc and see the status of all of my users in regards to the patch. In addition at the very least I can use the tool going forward to compare OS versions for future upgrades, and just for informational sake I like the Carrier column.. I didn't even realize that bit of info was reported back from the handheld to the BES.
In addition I'd like to thank the various boxtone folk who have communicated with me via email and priv messages from the start of attempting to get the original tool downloaded through the release of the update.
