We even had to make some compromises, there is no lock after constant use, but it does lock after 10 minutes of non use.

We have a password policy that matches our IS Security Policy. But set to wipe after 7 incorrect attempts. this works good for me, but you will allways have those NEW users, that will question the password policy when they first receive their devices, and try to make a stink. when you send them to corporate security to justify their wanted change they mostly have second thoughts. better to work the policy out when planning the environment, before deploying your first device.
