Until BB goes full wireless sync, you still need to get your contacts/notes/tasks.

I think we could create a "blackberry" group of users on our domain (nt4) and then test to see if they are in that group in the login script to determine whether to launch the desktop manager or not.

We have a special dial in modem bank that can access the RPC ports of our Exchange 5.5 server. If they have the Blackberry desktop manager loading at startup, it tries to connect to the exchange server and decides that it is offline. When they dial in to this connection and then launch Outlook, the mapi spooler is already loaded (by the blackberry desktop manager) and has already decided that the computer is offline. Right now we have to tell them to quit the Blackberry desktop manager, then dial in, then launch Outlook. If they need to cradle the Blackberry, then they must manually launch the desktop manager. Since they use the laptops direct connected to our LAN 95% of the time, it is good to have the desktop manager in the startup group. Is there a better way to handle this?
