I think the first or last option is probably the way to go (the second isn't really a batch) but note that the last option is TSQL, not ESQL. – Craig Stuntz Apr 27 '10 at 12:43

I believe that can be accomplished by adding multiple Entity to the context and calling save changes.

context.ApplyChanges<T>("Order", obj2);
context.SaveChanges();
