Per the Terminal Service's team blog, Microsoft has enabled support for revokation of TS Device licensing in Longhorn Terminal Services. This should come as great news for the 3 people who are actually running 2003 Terminal Services in Per Device mode

Re: Microsoft to support revokation of TS Device licensing in Longhorn
We use "per device" because of shift workers that share the same client device across 3 shifts so this is good news. To make it great news, I'd rather see the 52-89 day window dropped to a shorter time frame or even (gasp!) configurable.

Re: Microsoft to support revokation of TS Device licensing in Longhorn
Scott,
You make a great point on why an organization would have a good use for TS Device-based licensing. The only reason why I made the comment that I did is because once people realized that User-based licensing in 2003 TS Licensing wasn't enforced, many people switched to using that even in cases of Per Device licensing to just avoid the chance that a device wouldn't be able to connect due to the lack of a license. But it would be nice if there were additional options to tune the licensing.
