Cortana & Windows Phone 8.1 Update 1

[Anonymous]

Hi Everyone,

I've heard that WP 8.1 Update 1 is rolling out to the Lumia 930 devices at the moment, anyone know when other handsets will get the update? Is O2 involved in this update like they were with 8.1 itself?

I have the 1520 and can't wait to upgrade!

Cheers!

As already mentioned in this thread - The official O2 update thread is here and will be updated whenever any new info is available.

Listen, BT are in advanced stages of buying the o2 mobile business, if it goes ahead, there will be a few massive changes. Maybe this is unsettling the staff currently with o2. So hold tight & wait for Denim under a new brand?

I dont think the talks are that advanced. I would imagine that any updates will be rolled out well before any meger takes place

@Cleoriff is absolutely correct. In the event that BT agree a deal with Telefonica (who's executive flew into London on Thursday for talks with BT) the deal due to its size will need to go through a UK and a European regulatory review which will take months. It is expected that BT would also have to make concessions given it would have monopolistic position in the UK. There is no guarantee BT would agree to such regulatory intervention so even if a deal is announced there are no guarantees it would be concluded.

So for updates to Cortana etc these would be done far in advance of any takeover.

Thanks for that Nick. I have just noticed a typing error in my post which is niggling me as I am out of time to edit. So for *meger* ...please read *merger*
