Thanks for the responses. I was waiting to buy Orbit until my cable arrived so as to maximize my 1 year license since i cannot connect without the cable. Since the PIN codes can be worked on by supplying the VIN without an Orbit-car connection and takes a day or so, I should probably pull the trigger on Orbit now ;-).
As for the settings... just to make sure I understand: if I make changes from default settings using the car's UI and then use Orbit to "Revert to OEM", that will reset all settings to default; both those adjusted within Orbit and those changed via the car's UI. For the settings adjusted in Orbit, I can use the Save/Load feature to re-apply them, but the settings changed via the car's UI that were reverted back to default via Orbit's "Revert to OEM" will have to be manually re-created in the car.
IOW, the "Save/Load" commands in Orbit save and re-apply only those settings made within Orbit. The "Revert to OEM" command in Orbit reverts ALL settings (not just those made via Orbit) to factory defaults. Restoration is a two-step process of applying the settings changed via Orbit (via the Load command) and manually changing settings from default within the car's menus.
