Enterprise Full Disk Encryption

I used to travel to client sites a lot with my previous employer and I would
see a mixture of PGP WDE and Safeboot in use. Both can be centrally managed.
Smaller shops tended to gravitate to PGP and larger entities would favor
Safeboot.

Safeboot was purchased by McAfee and it may have gone through a name change
in the process.

There is a way with true crypt for creating a header or something that can
be replaced on a file that has a forgotten password.  but this has to be
done in advance

If we did end up using TrueCrypt, users would be assigned static
passwords (which the IT staff would have stored in and encrypted
file). That would at least eliminate people forgetting their password.

Securitycatalyst.org/forums has a few topics on it.  I know several of
the
people there have implemented or are implementing FDE on several (50+)
machines
here is one of the threads

I'm getting bids from HP and Dell on laptops (about 100). Does anyone
have experience with their respective full disk encryption solutions?
The reps I've talked too (from both companies) can't really give me
the technical information that I want, and the information on both
websites is outdated (2007).
I've also considered going with TrueCrypt (I have the most experience
with this and it's free, but there's not a good way to centrally
manage it).
Your thoughts?
