Just got my Orion II also, replacing an ailing IC-775DSP which has been in
the shop a couple months for repairs.
Here's an interesting site that has an Orion "wish list" for the next
update.

Subject: [TenTec] I'm in love already (was "Took the plunge...")
My shiny new Orion 2 arrived today, and I'm in love already!
Only complaint so far are the puny Send1 and Send2 memories - far to
short for even a contest CQ, and I'm too lazy to use Send3 (needs to be
reprogrammed after each off-on)
Maybe the SW guy at TT have fixed it in the upcoming release?
Incredible Rx audio (I'm mostly a phone guy + some Digital (WSJT, WSPR,
PSK31 and RTTY)) and reports on Tx audio (I bought the 708A desk mike
with it) excellent.
Spent about 12 hours with it today, trying out stuff, reading the manual
and QSO'ing.
