Is this going to be just for Call Manager 6.0 though as there is no
option in CUCM 4.1 or 5.1 for Peer Firmware Sharing in the Phone
configuration.

Release Notes?  I can't see any such document for 8.3(1).

The Peer Firmware Sharing basically looks like it works per subnet.   
When it is enabled when a phone goes to download a new firmware it  
will go looking for other phones that also need it.  One phone is  
chosen as the "root phone" and will actually download the file from  
the TFTP server.  The other phones will then get that file from the  
root phone.  This is done on a per-file basis so I guess it's  
possible different phones can be the root for different files.

It will be at least next week before I get to play with it.  We're in  
the middle of moving buildings and all my phones are currently in a box.

Nope, which is why I'm hoping that Ryan will chime in here shortly.
