[Windows Central Question]

Just purchased a Nokia Lumina Icon (929) It came with windows 8.0. Looking at the forums, it seems 8.1 is available for most all other models. Wondering when it would be available for my new phone.

You are not the only one who is waiting on it. Verizon is very slow but it is coming soon. See also this post .

That's something that, unfortunately, is up to Verizon at this point. It's been a huge point of contention around here since 8.1's release.

To get 8.1 now, you could enroll in the Preview for Developers program, but note that you won't get firmware updates through the program--that stuff still has to go through Verizon. If you're interested in that, there's a ton of information about it on this site and in the forums: Windows Phone 8.1 Developer Preview, all you need to know!.

For the most part though, you're just going to have to wait until Verizon and/or Microsoft work out whatever it is that's holding things up...

Oh my God! It's LUMIA, not Lumina.
