California Model S updating now. 125MB file in the initial download. It seems clear that they waited for wifi as it kicked off the second my car got onto it's AP. For the record it was not delivered over VPN. It was delivered via Akamai. My bet is that there are not as many different builds as we might think. Definitely not a build-server per car.
Your means of getting the fastest update is likely to include getting onto wifi. Don't worry about the Akamai bit. They will sort you out as long as you have a typical Internet connection.
I saw you mention NV yesterday. What's the deal there?
JUST got it.
Ok. "Summon feature not yet available in this region"
NVM now it let me turn it on
Do it! Do it! Do it! Uh, oh. Sorry; Excited a bit. Just got my update notification and started process. Will update tracker when complete.So with the floodgates apparently open in much of California (and a bunch of people in Oregon also mentioning on the local mailing list that they got updates), can I ask people to please report things in the tracker? We only got another 30 reports this afternoon and given that approximately a third of all Model S are in California it seems that a lot of you didn't enter your data. Thanks. Much appreciated.
BTW: we're at 256 updates in the tracker so far - and extra thanks to the eight of you who were kind enough to note that you are in California in the notes.
This is an amazing community.
HA! As I am typing this my iPhone shows me that my car has an update pending.
Should I do it? It feels like staying on 6.2 really doesn't make much sense anymore... I was kinda holding out for 7.1 hoping for a much improved UI... but as many here predicted, I'm starting to feel left behind...

Installing now here. Looks like CA. Got blasted with the update tonight.

Update installing now in Washington... Don't have AP enabled so I think the only thing I get to look forward to is the improved wiper stuff and maybe Slacker radio assuming that's coming to the USA but I swear I had read elsewhere it wasn't right now.

Come to the dark side. We have toy cars.
+1
(on both the "do it Dirk!" and "just got the update" pieces :biggrin
The problem is that the AP in 7.0 is better. So 7.1 is a clear downgrade.Well, you see, autopilot isn't perfect. It covers some situations really well, others adequately, still others poorly, and some not at all. We all believe it will get better over time. I think at this point we're all clear that the current implementation isn't good enough for you. But it is good enough for most people to use it. It's certainly, for almost everybody, better than not having it.
You guys are cracking me. But what will Hank think of me? Won't he feel abandoned? I thought the irony of the two people most active on the firmware update tracker still being on 6.2 was priceless...
Oh well
/me walks out to the car and presses "install now"...

That's not a good direction to take for Tesla....
As a newbie, I must admit I was a bit confused about that irony myself.You guys are cracking me. But what will Hank think of me? Won't he feel abandoned? I thought the irony of the two people most active on the firmware update tracker still being on 6.2 was priceless...

The practical usefulness of that is pretty much zero. The angle of view of the camera is too narrow to reliably detect cars to the side of you.I haven't driven it yet, but I don't think this is accurate. The fact that Autopilot is recognizing more than one car, as well as motorcycles and trucks is a great achievement. Not to mention Summon is great for when some idiot parks close to you in the parking lot.
I have more than 8 thousand miles on the current 7.0 AP, all of that road trips. AP's problematic spots are entirely predictable after a while.I think that adding more nags is necessary to be brutally honest. My car has tried to swerve completely randomly out of the lane (mostly on carpool lanes), and if I wasn't holding the wheel, it would've resulted in a possible accident. I've got a 300mi round trip tomorrow, so I will definitely be able to test it out
