This was not a smooth deployment[0]: 13.0.0 9/19/19 13.1 9/24/19 13.1.1 9/27/19 13.1.2 9/30/19 13.1.3 10/15/19 I wait a couple of days to make sure updates are not bricking devices. Waiting just a week saw 3 updates and a 4th within 10 days. Some of those updates saw serious crippling of capabilities of the device after the update.
