Maybe I'm missing it, but I'm not seeing anything from Apple about tax exempt purchases? I know that was a big hang up in our division. Otherwise, this program looks like something we'd be very interested in. Ryan M.

In the fall I set up myself as a project manager. To me the biggest pain is that you need an account (using an e-mail that you are not already using for iTunes) for the PM account and a different account (with yet a different e-mail address) to be the person that actually buys/installs the software. After setting it up I recall it worked O.K. For some reason I ended up setting up all my iPads with different iTune accounts, I guess because you can only download an app so many times with the same account. It sounded like there is a different way to install software on many machines but I was too thick to figure it out.
