Anyone else contemplating updating to 8.1 via Developer Preview?

[jdballard]

I'm contemplating updating to 8.1 via the developer preview. Rumor has it that it will be available 4/14. I'm considering it - anyone else?

pretty much all of us wpcentral forums users.. I know I will

I most definitely after I had had to wait for the Lumia black update for five long months.
In addition I am dying for the calendar week view and the new volume settings...

I'll update if I know it won't remove wifi calling first... I need it seeing that the signal in my apartment is really bad. Does anyone know if updating will remove that? I'm really tempted to though.

Definitely grabbing the update as soon as I possibly can. Mostly looking forward to the new keyboard, it's the one thing I miss from my Android days. The transparent tiles/background looks interesting too.

I also would like to know if pushing 8.1 early will break Wi-Fi calling on my T-Mobile 925. I'm tempted, but since there's no going back, I'm not sure...

Seeing that Microsoft didn't even finish wp8.1 kernel until a couple weeks ago and are supposed to be just finishing the UX areas yesterday, and the closest rumor for it's release via Dev Preview is 4/14..
Did you mean you're using Windows 8.1 (as in the PC operating system)? Or are you confusing WP 8.0 gdr3 with WP 8.1??

 

[fwaits]

I think he just meant, he's been using the Dev Preview program since then, not WP8.1.

T-Mobile has WiFi calling which is an option on some phones to make calls over WiFi instead of cellular. It's main benefit is where there is WiFi but no or poor cellular signal. I don't know if other carriers do it or if its available in Europe.

I thought just about everyone on this forum was going to. Why wouldn't you?
