Good interview - but I wonder how long it will be before you can summon your car on private property - and order it to go to bed while it gets plugged by the auto snake. I mean come on, that would be so cool - a real game changer!

Would be interested to know the date of this interview. Not sure how to find that out. So we should get autopilot a month from that date. Maybe UI7 before then.
YouTube states that the date of the interview was September 23rd.
I wouldn't count on getting 7.0 by October 23rd, it sounded like a Tesla month to me. ;-)
I think they will release 7.0 on September 29 with the Launch of the Model X to maximise the media hype, then roll 7.0 out progressively to existing Model S.

Yes meloccom, that was my immediate thought too... A Tesla month. And that of course means anything, as long as it is more than a month. Sort of a "not before" marking with no real indication of the actual time.
Reminds me of what Sir Humphrey Appleby said. "Under consideration" means that they have lost the file and "under active consideration" means that they are trying to find it. And "autopilot" is under active consideration.

Hi ZTrekus,
Have just tried a portable USB driven 120Gig Solid state hard drive- seems to work fine. Did take quite a while to load initially. Need more driving time to listen to all the old favorites.:biggrin:

Who's going in for a service. Mine's in there now but they only updated it to 2.5.85; had hoped for 7

Hi Ray,
Apparently mine is in the service centre for predelivery. Can you push it onto a truck for me before you leave.
thanks

I just saw you at the service center an hour ago, too bad I didn't see the post before or I would have introduced myself.
My car is the white one on the left.

Nice! One could be mine...or maybe not...not sure where it is. Surely 7.0 is not far away now.
Also I wonder if that white protective layer would prevent hail damage?

Was there yesterday with at least 12 cars parked down there. Was told they are renting storage space near by and the total number of cars awaiting delivery in Sydney is a lot more than what you see in the back lot.

Maybe they should go a little faster. I remember my frustration while waiting for mine.
Also say at least four at the local detailers this morning.
Seems like 7.0 will come next week for us:
"Owners would get the system through a software update starting on Wednesday evening in North America. Owners in Europe and Asia would get the software update in about a week. People with Model S sedans that were made earlier do not have the required sensors and would not be able to add them retroactively."

I pick up my car from the delivery centre in Richmond tomorrow... I'll be sure to let you know if I hear anything.
Yep rollout is for north america only. Hopefully this isn't like homelink and internet browser.

Yes that's being reported in several places but directly contradicts Musk's tweet to Heosat where he said 'worldwide' in response to the query about whether the Oct 15th release was US only or worldwide. So who knows.

Elon's more recent tweets (in response to a query from the UK) indicated that roll out to markets outside the US is "subject to regulatory approval".
Well that's Australia stuffed then....

I hope we don't end up in a position where we can't have what we have been convinced to purchase.
Strange how the US regulators made it in time but no-one else did.
