Default Anyone got the code update out west yet?

Got the card in the mail last week, but no sign of the update being queued yet. Are they leaving western customers until last?

It has nothing to do with location, just the unit ID.

No need to panic until August 8th.
Thats the length of time they allocated for the deployment.

Actually given the history of the 530 code upgrades, I would not mind being the last one. It seems that they are only targeting a small number of 530 subs in the first week. More subs will get the update if the feedback is good...

ARR: "No need to panic until August 8th.

I'm on holidays until after Aug. 8th, and my 505a is in storage. Does that mean that I can't get the update when I get back and hook the unit up?

You'll once you hook it up after August 8th. Your machine will be quick to be targeted. All 317/207 with v. 08 are usually targeted the same night they are activated. I activated a 317 to my account about a week ago and went out for the night. When I got home at 3am I already had the D0 update. I'd imagine the same will be for all 505/530's activated after Aug 8.

I have two 530's and two 505's and not even a sniff of the new code yet. Go figure.
