I see but there should be some way to just find available rooms, similar to how 
OWA handles that:
An Add Room button which lists all (available) rooms and then adds the selected 
room to both
Location and Attendees.

hmm, I restarted my Evo and now the Calendar is NOT read only. I guess 
something happened during the holidays.
We are just adding Exchange 2013 and are still testing stuff before going live.
BTW, I am currently using 3.13.9, dunno if that makes a difference though.

hmm, one again the Calendar quit, trying to refresh the EWS calendar i get the 
msg "Calendar is offline" and
I have to restart Evo to get it back(online). It seems small errors has a way 
to make the calendar offline and
it will not recover. 

Finally, I cannot get the Status field to reflect my actual status, it is 
always Need Action
even for Accepted meetings, trying to change that does not work either.
