Is the Content Manager associated with an account available to all tbe phones that are part of that account - or does each phone have its own content manager vault?

Each has it's own.

Actually, I believe it is each phone number that has its own. In reviewing Content Manager on my young daughter's phone, I noticed that she had quite a few pricey games, around $5 each. The odd thing was that all of them were one-time charges, not recurring monthly or 90-day charges.

Further digging on www.sprintpcs.com revealed that "she" had "subscribed" to these games in 2002 or something like that -- long before my daughter even had a phone! My guess is that someone else had her phone number with Sprint, bought a bunch of games, and closed out their account without porting their phone number. A few years later, my daughter got assigned that phone number -- and along with it came the rights to those games!

I'm guessing that Sprint is supposed to "clean up" the Content Manager when a phone number is rotated back into the free pool, but somehow this one escaped the process.

Anyway, from this I assume that content is assigned per number and not necessarily per account line, a distinction that, in this case, actually makes a difference! YMMV.
