Interesting - Installation routine warns you that DM will phone home and alert RIM when activated, and will register your PIN 'for administrative purposes' upon use of certain unnamed features. That's paraphrased; I installed a couple hours ago and don't remember the exact wording. Curious if this is only part of the beta, or if it will be a 'feature' of the release product. I don't like stuff that phones home ....

I installed, and performed updates to my phone. Didn't see any warning you mentioned.

Dude... you have the wrong version..... I have installed it in the usual way, no pin activation or any other garbage you mention!!

When or which part during the process you saw it?
OK, I uninstalled and reinstalled DM6 so I could see exactly where the disclaimer appeared and what it said. It shows up on the screen where the license agreement is displayed, right below the two radio buttons where you click to either accept or not accept the terms of the license agreement. It text says this:
Notice: RIM tracks the activation of certain product features for administrative purposes and your device PIN and an installation identifier will be automatically registered with RIM upon activating certain features of this software.
I took a screen shot, but have no good place to host it, so can't post it here. I would be willing to bet that everybody clicked that 'Agree' button, like always, and blew right past this notice without even seeing it. Truthfully, I'm surprised I saw it myself. I'm sure I downloaded the same version as everybody else - there was only once source I knew of later this afternoon.
Well so far NOT happy, DM 6 is NOT seeing my Outlook 2010, mind you I am a x64 system and that could be a problem
What a pain! I heard that there was a registry edit that you could make that would allow DM to integrate with Outlook 2010 but I'm not sure where I came across the link. Might be worth Googling for "Registry Edit, Desktop Manager, Outlook 2010, BlackBerry"?
RIM's definitely taken it's eye off the ball here. How could they not have full integration with Outlook 2010?

There is a fix if you use Outlook 2007 and DM 5,
DM 6 can use outlook 2010 32, it is just us 64bit people that have no love yet,
