Apps from Multiple Accounts on One iPad

Hi all. Sorry if this has been answered already but I couldn't find it anywhere. I'm getting a iPad 3G from my work in a week (yay). I work at a fairly large private company (3K+ employees) so IT will be setting it up and passing it off to me.

I have a ton of iPhone apps on a personal phone, many of which have universal versions that I'd love to have on the iPad. I know that if it were my iPad I'd just set it up under my iTunes account and could load them up.

I assume IT will be registering the iPad. Can anyone summarize what scenarios there could be for how the account could be set up? Are there hybrid options where you can have multiple iTunes accounts linked? Note: I know the iPad doesn't allow multiple users/profiles. That's no problem for me as I'll be the only one using the device.

IT will load with some of their enterprise apps (salesforce.com, etc.)--is there a chance I could then put my own apps on or even purchase new ones straight to the device?

All in all, beggars can't be choosers and I'll be happy no matter what but it would be great if I could use my own apps on it.

 

Thanks for the response, poloponies.

That's a good thing to keep in mind. One of the benefits of a private company that has grown very rapidly is that there aren't a lot of overbearing IT policies. The tech I get through work is provisioned and set up a specific way but they don't do much policing after that. I have a MBP for work that they let me take home/wherever. They don't perform any tracking or maintenance.

I think it's one of those, 'they don't care and won't bother you as long as you're not doing something else really stupid or illegal.' I just didn't know if it's something they could easily prevent right from the get-go.

If they tell me, "YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO PUT OTHER APPS ON," of course I won't. Not worth losing my job over something silly. But I don't think they'll care or say that.
