Ok, even if it's not complicated, that still leaves the issue of cost. How much are the parts, the time and are there enough people willing to upgrade at a price at which Tesla makes a profit off the procedure?
Is it straightforward enough that software functionality is guaranteed (also in the future)?
While I'd totally upgrade for somewhere around a thousand bucks, I wouldn't for two. I'd love to have a snappier MCU, but not at a price far beyond a cellphone upgrade.
BTW the Elon tweet was indeterminate whether it was about technical feasibility or an actually intended upgrade by the company. One could read it both ways. And a short time later they brought out a significantly sped up UI software update which made most people sufficiently happy to not ask for a hardware upgrade.
