Bill, Thanks for your comments. I just started playing with NHM. With what I am trying to do, it doesn't seem to add much value. I can not even set up a scheduled backup of all my Nokias from NHM. There might be value in installing patches or packages to a number of Nokias at one time. I have not done that yet so I can not comment on that function. If anyone is using NHM in production, I would really appricate your comments on the product.
