Just installed my update. Some of the features are there. Some are not. For example, FSD 13 is in but, Sit Happens is not. Also, I can't add the key to my Apple Watch because it requires 2024.44 and the CT update was 2024.39.

Two different updates. You'll eventually get the functionality of both. I want the Apple Watch functionality too, but IMO the FSD 13 should be more interesting. The cute or funny stuff is nice but IMO not worth getting impatient about.

FSD 13.2.2 was one update. Then about 20 hours later the Holiday Update appeared to be able to download. Two different events.

Got 2024.45.25.5 this morning with fsd13.2.2 on my 36k vin beast. The Apple Watch key works. Updated Santa mode sleigh with vertical thrusters and starman Santa etc.
