Either get yourself a VM of the latest and greatest for testing (a good idea to have anyway) or download the ZIP file of the load, put it on a PC or server running a TFTP daemon and point your Cius to that.  It should get the default config file and upgrade to 9.2(2).

The lab server will have the added benefit of being able to play with the features, let two Cius' make calls back and forth, etc.

I believe it is 9.2.1.

Our CallManagers are too old to support the Cius.  Until I can get the
cluster upgraded (I'm hoping in a few months) is there a way to
upgrade the Cius?

In our environment (higher ed) the "enterprisey" aspects will be
appreciated but will they be enough?  I can just see the reactions
when the President finds out that his grandkids can't play Fruit Ninja
on his new tablet.  I'm really interested to see how it all fits
together.

Thanks for the input.
