So bait us to upgrade our 822 to a flagship Icon that is "8.1" ready and "right around the corner", then update the 822 first.

I got the Icon so I would be first at our company to get 8.1 so I could familiarize myself with it before it rolled out to the 822 users, you guys are pathetic, now I am having to update our 822 users and flying blind this morning.

And no I am not running the Developers Preview on a work phone, I shouldn't have to if Verizon did their job correctly as promised.

Thanks Verizon, I can hear you now.

This will not be forgotten, I feel bad for the next VZ rep that walks in here.

We need Denim which is the firmware upgrade, without it lots of new OS's feature will be useless.

I've been running the Preview Build of Win 8.1 on my Icon for sometime now. Like DancingDave above I have noticed the delay in turning on...not every time but quite occasionally. Also, email is acting strange now...sometimes refreshing by itself and other times needing to be forced to refresh. There are a few other minor glitches now and again which I can only attribute to the firmware upgrade that goes along with the OS update which Verizon seems to delaying.

You can use the Msft Band with the Icon. I've had a Band for months, and my Icon is still (obviously) on Black.

File an FCC complaint online. When the executive offices call from Verizon, let them know how you were tricked. FCC Complaints

Thank you VZ for the release, as stated before you would make less enemies if you were more transparent with what you are doing.  You are horrible with your customer service.  I dread having to deal with Verizon and Verizon Wireless.  Well, Verizon Wireless now that we are getting off of Verizon's Landlines.

Anywho, now I can buy the band and use it to its fullest and get the apps I could not get before.  All this from a phone that VZ doesn't even sell anymore, how ironic.

Hey Cortona, who has the worst customer support?

Cortona: VERIZON!
