Lumia Icon Denim update scheduled for early 2015

Verizon has today announced the Windows Phone 8.1 and Lumia Denim update for the Lumia 928 and Lumia 822, but what about the Lumia Icon? Well, it's not included today, but thanks to a tweet from Microsoft's Joe Belfiore, there is at least light at the end of the tunnel. But that tunnel runs into 2015.

Happy Holidays WP users on Verizon! The 928 and 822 updates (WP8.1 + Denim) go live today and the ICON is on deck for early 2015.

So there we have it. It's a good news day for Verizon Lumia owners in general, even if some will have to carry on waiting a little longer.

Update: Microsoft now confirms that the Lumia Icon will go straight to Lumia Denim in this update, which also includes Cyan
