Unfortunately, you've found the only means you can view free/busy
information, which is to use the Schedule tab in a new meeting invitation.

Please be sure to let Microsoft know you'd like to see this feature in
future versions by using the Help --> Send Feedback mechanism in any Office
application.

Your idea about creating a group is a good one. Yes, you can create a group
in your Entourage Address Book and then add that to your event. You'll have
to click on the group as if you were going to add more recipients. This will
allow you to right-click or Control-click your group and select "Expand
Group". In a few seconds you should see free/busy results for each person.

Hope this helps!
