yea thats another option, but by the time the regkey is found it would have been the time to hard reset and reload everything

It the lock is worth anything, it won't connect via activesync until the device is unlocked. I think that's the way the stock WM lock works, but I've never used a pin and am using pocketshield at the moment.
