At least these changes are steps in the right direction.
What I'd like to see is for the Nestor to become sort of an "Exploration Orca".
Drop the hacking/relic bonuses since they're useless on a ship so slow. Instead, increase the scan probe bonus.
Increase the SMA to make it big enough for an Astero or Statios (I'd love to see room for both!). Give a small fleet hangar.
Beef up the remote repair range. Maybe to 500% which still won't compete with dedicated logistics ships.
I can easily see dropping the laser bonus and giving a bonus other than the Amarr resistance bonus to keep it balanced.
Instead of the 10%/level bonus to drop hit points and damage give it a bonus to range.
Give it the damn covops cloak its mission demands. It was obviosly designed by the Sisters to operate with the Stration and Astero, so it should have this capability. Give it a long lock time after cloaking or something.
My reasoning is that I see the Nestor as a stand-off sort of command and support ship. In a group, its the designated system scanner used to determine targets for the smaller ships then jump with them to lend support while they hack and or fight. For the solo player, use it to jump around the backwaters of New Eden, in low sec, if it scans down something I teresting, the player can dock and switch to the Stratios or Astero its carrying.
Now, what would be cool is if the solo player could lock it and cloak it so it doesn't get jacked. Don't they have keys anymore in the future?

I think they are getting closer with the Nestor. Many of it's abilities and stats are looking good to me, especially the fitting service.
Add a small fleet hangar (2500 m3) and covert ops cloak ability and I'd buy one now.
However, if the add in the jump drive and ability to bridge I could go without the cloak, but I'd like to see it use covops cynos which is right in line with its exploration-type mission. Of course, the Astero and Stratios would have to be able to light the covops cynos.
