With that headline, and searching for a way to profile multiple iDevices, I started looking into it.
Could not find the older 2.1 version, figured 3.1 would be backwards compatible even though the download page specifically says it is for ios 4 devices.
Downloaded it here.. -- http://support.apple.com/kb/dl851
Discovered it is not compatible with iPad, that could have been accomplished with a little reading..

Then no luck finding 2.1 on Apple site.
Fortunately, a Google search found 2.1 at:
-- http://mac.brothersoft.com/apple-iphone-configuration-utility-2.1-download.html
Then trying to launch the 2.1 version crashes instead of starting, quite reliably, arghh!
Hunted down and deleted the plist file in ~/Library
2.1 then launches.
Somehow, probably the magic of xml?, the test configuration profile that was set up in 3.1 is still there in 2.1 even with plist file removal.
Regardless, it all is working now.
It references this blog.
