ROVER DEPLOYMENT!!!!

[angelak]

So far so fucking good! I'm thrilled. I only have 4 more Rovers to update tomorrow, I’ve set up plans to begin dealing with profiles and resetting passwords tomorrow. I think I took care of 4 or 5 today, and that was still with a bit of setup experimenting. Now I’ve got a good way to set them up. I can upgrade one in 15-20 minutes max.

Plans to get the profiles pulled by end of Thursday. Definitely deploy the 3 new shared officers’ machines on Friday, and go live with Sprint service in cars supposing the profiles cut over okay, on TUESDAY.

Right now, I couldn’t be more relaxed. Everything feels like it is coming together. Yeay!

Let’s hold our breath for the profiles pulling clean over the wireless connection.
