Yeah, the operation of the NBT is virtually the same as the CIC. If you know one, you'll understand the other.

I disagree that they'll leave out older NBT units from software changes. A 2013 CIC car has the same features as a 2009 CIC unit. I expect Siri Eyes Free to be an update, this summer. Of course the touch controller (or whatever they'll call it) will probably not retrofit easily into current NBT cars. But who knows.
