Okay so I posted this: http://flaphead.dns2go.com/archive/2010/12/01/exchange-2010-management-shell-missing-after-an-upgrade-to-sp1.aspx but it doesn’t totally work, as Microsoft.Exchange.PowerShell.Configuration.dll isn’t registered!?!

So you need to update the registry with the proper powershell snapin setting and then it will work.  I used this reg file.  NB for me Exchange is installed on the D drive.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
