I dont think #1 is true. A buddy got his model X 1 month before me in June and he has v9 already.

Our new (delivered Sept. 22) S 75D has been sitting in our WiFi-accessible garage since we brought it home. We haven't been driving it because...
can i suggest you unpair your car from your wifi at home, let it sit for a few hours and then re-pair it. you would be surprised what a little "refresh" will do to a car that has been sitting idle.
if you wanted to do this right... the car out for a spin.. if you do this.. then there is no need to unpair from your wifi.
sounds like you aren't in much of a hurry to upgrade to V9
Driving the car to dinner on Friday must have done it, because Saturday morning the update was available. When I got in the car it said the update might take 1 hour 40 minutes but it only took about an hour. All went well, apparently.Thanks for the tip. I suspected that might be the case, so I told my wife we're taking it out to dinner tonight...
They do send out updates via cellular, but seem to always favor wifi. In addition to this, many people were seeing 5-10GB data transfers over wifi before they got V9 (me included). These are likely maps upgrades, and I hear those ONLY go over wifi, so you might need to park near a coffee shop with free wifi for a bit, or your nearest Tesla service center to get on their wifi for those maps.
I hated the UI changes in the last major update (was that V7?). You know what? After a few weeks I realized I liked it.I think you should be glad you haven't gotten version 9 yet. I have it and I *hate* the new user interface with the heat of a thousand suns. It sucks.
My car is with the dealer for repair and they've taken it up to 2018.36.2.
The bad news; apparently V9 is not available in Switzerland and he has no idea when it will be!
Are certain countries excluded?
Ah thanks for letting me know. Do we know why this is?Entire continents are currently excluded - Europe and Australia don’t have V9 yet.

Sorry for your pain. The news is that the different road painting designs in Europe are delaying V9. Perhaps a more unified EU with all EU road regulations post-Brexit just to keep it simple?
