Picked it up on October 18th of this year. I have had 3 updates since in a three day spert a couple weeks ago.
I’m in the same place. I got my car in early November. I had a bunch of updates, then everything went quiet. Im guessing ford just hasn’t pushed us the next round of updates yet.

How do we see what version we are currently on? I just see Revision 411. What Revision is 4.1.1?
The power up numbers don’t match the sync versions. The numbers associated with power ups are just reference numbers. Each power up updates different modules, sync is only one of dozens that can be updated. So several power ups may go by before you see the sync version change.

RE:
1) that is why every SW company on the planet does testing.
2) phone, TV, computer system patches etc... are all much bigger than the updates pushed to our cars. Surge server capacity is solved with a phone call to their cloud provider.
1) Yes, but every SW company on the planet releases software with bugs despite the size of the company and the diligence and extent of their testing.
2)Most phone, OS updates, TV patches, etc. are pushed out in waves, not in a single drop as being advocated.

I'm not arguing one way or the other that the testing being done by Ford is adequate, but if you think it is not, dropping an update globally is not what you should be wanting.

I don’t think EA is a “beta program” per se (I’m in it). It’s more of an opportunity for Ford to send production software to you earlier than to some other users. It also means that you may be asked to complete some surveys for Ford. Couple of other minor things. Buy not access to what people would consider “beta” software.
In general I agree. But in the context of the recent test of the Currently mobile charging service, it was much was beta (at least I hope it was 🤣)!

And 411 is definitely not the latest...

Not always, intelligent range was pushed to us for a few months, then rolled back and I don't think anyone has it anymore.

Thanks for the clarification. What would you consider Tesla’s “Full Self Driving Beta” by your definition? From what I’ve seen/heard, I’d consider it development code, maybe an early stage alpha at best, but no way a “beta”?

The 4.x software updates should begin rolling out.

I'd love to say more but that's all I know. Speculate away!
Home it isn't too long before they roll out in UK. We seem to not get them so often & missing plenty of features
