Apple stated on their website (http://www.apple.com/ios/education/ and http://www.apple.com/ios/business/), that the Supervision profile could be pushed out wirelessly.

"IT can now supervise devices over the air enabling additional controls for highly managed deployments."

We never bothered to Supervise our 710 Ipads over the Summer as we heard about this feature quite early on. But I can't see this anywhere. Does anyone know if this ever get put into IOS7?

I don't think its available yet. A recent email from our SE said, "Over the next few weeks and months further information will be coming on features such as Streamlined MDM enrollment, App Store license management, Caching Server 2 and Under 13 Apple ID’s."

We had our Apple reps in the other day and they are whispering December by the looks of it. I know this for the licensed management part. I can only assume the streamlined MDM will be a part of this as well.

Thats a big gamble assuming that the OTA Supervision won't erase the device as it does when you use configurator.
