If you have a chance to attend an Apple Tech Update in your area, they often do
demonstrations of what you can do with ARD in a lab  -- today in Portsmouth, NH,
they were showing how to use it with Automator.  Past Tech Updates have included
how to make software installation packages and deploy them via ARD.  

Check the listings for Apple Seminars & Events and constrain the search by
Product and select Apple Remote Desktop for such things closer to you:

The Administrator's Guide to version 3.1 is available at:

     http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/ARD_3.1_AdminGuide.pdf

and the Administrator's Guide for version 3.2 at:

     http://images.apple.com/server/docs/ARD3.2_AdminGuide.pdf

There is also a discussion forum at Apple about ARD:

This is a link to a sweet little app made in Automator (free!) that leverages
ARD to do common tasks in a lab such as lock the screens, send files, etc.:

Very handy!
