Multiple iTunes accounts with iPad2.

I have the following scenario: We have purchased several iPads for our employees and we are trying to find the best way to administer them. We would like to be abble to:

1. Users to use their home computer and personal iTunes account to purchase apps/music/books with their personal credit card;

2. Users to use a single company computer and one company iTunes account so that we can purchase apps/books that are company mandatory with the company credit card.


Is this possible and what is the correct way of setting this up.

Thank you,


p.s. Of course users have other personal apple products (iPhone, iPod, etc.) and administering those is not the issue here, but, should not affect the proposed setup.

iPad 2, Windows XP Pro, iTunes

so the VPP would be an option..that way the users could continue to use their personal iTunes accounts, and you could deploy the company paid apps to them via a link imbedded in an email sent to them...we also have users backup their iOS devices on home computers...that way we don't have to mess around with responsibility for iTunes music and photo libraries on work pc's..here is a link to the VPP if you haven't seen it yet...
