Home laptops on a corporate network

Hi all - I have a client who wants to allow employees to use their own laptops on the corp. wireless network so that they can access files on the server. I gave them a run-down of options (allow usual file sharing [bad idea], MS VPN quarantine [complex scripting], SharePoint services [not bad, but no printer access] and third party quarantine options). Aside from any other ideas someone may have, it seems to me that the third party compliance software/appliance, while probably being the most versatile is pretty costly. I found a couple starting at about $20K. Does anybody know of any devices that are significantly cheaper and can allow my client to do what they want? I should mention that they are bound by HIPAA regulations here. Or any approaches I haven't thought of? Thanks for the input. Adam Adam J.
