that's a duplicate post, same thing was posted to other forums yesterday. Discussed thoroughly in this thread since then. No guarantee that incomplete JS means squat.
there's a new pic posted from the venue by someone imgur: the simple image sharer

OK, and it's just barely outside of SFC->10k area of the LAX B. But that doesn't change the rest of my point: the FAA isn't shutting down HHR for Tesla playtime, Presidential TFR or not.

I have trouble believing that any announcement tonight would scorn any recent purchasers. I am more referring to guesses that they would have AWD on every Model S and no price increase.
Can you imagine all the pissed off customers who just took delivery in the last couple weeks? I am in that boat. I know some guys were really pissed off they did not get the new sensors. I don't think the new sensors is a big enough deal to significantly effect resale value though. Having an 85 AWD come out at the same price a week later would have a significant impact on my resale value. Then they are going to turn around and invite me to the event 2 days after delivery to rub it in? I would think not.
I think AWD will come out, but it will be at a higher cost and possibly on only certain models.
The "and something else" is probably Driver Assist features. The ones that Tesla DS and sales associates admit are on the car, but say they are not allowed to talk about until it is "announced". This sounds like a convenient time to announce it and is almost to coincidental to not be associated.
The statements from Elon about people not understanding the magnitude most definitely could be referring to the Driver Assist feautres as he likely sees that as a big part of Tesla and driving as a whole.
