Deploying RDLs & RDSs without VS .NET or ReportManager

I was asked to design and deliver SQL Reporting Services reports to a
customer; just the RDLs and RDSs. The customer will not have Visual Studio
.NET (or any other .NET IDE) loaded on their computer. So, I have a couple
of questions:
1. How can I programmatically deploy all the RDLs and RDSs to the
ReportServer without an IDE?
2. If, after the initial deployment, changes are made to the RDLs and/or
RDSs, how can I programmatically re-deploy these "fixed" items without
having VS .NET on the computer?
Thanks.There is a SOAP API you can use:

does precisely that. We use it to deploy reports to our new customers, or
update batches of reports to existing customers. I will sell it to you for
$150 if you are interested. I can be reached at (954) 5471293.
