I got mine on Feb. 29 for the leap day sale and I have yet to see a notification, let alone ICS itself.

I got mine right after the release of the original Razr in November and I am still on GB. My mom just got a blue Razr on 6/13 and is also on GB so purchase date has nothing to do with it. It is entirely random. I have got so used to seeing the "No update necessary" that I have been checking hers often hoping that one of us get it!
I guess I need to keep this handy since it needs to be reposted every couple of hours. 
Beyond those who were a part of the soak, the order in which users receive the update is 100% random. It doesn't matter when you bought your phone, where you're located, how long you've been a Verizon customer, what the specifics of your plan are, what color your shoes are, how many licks it takes you to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop, or anything else someone comes up with. You could have two RAZRs in the same house, on the same plan, that were purchased at the same time, and one might get it a week before the other. The waves go out to random IMEI numbers, and there's no rhyme or reason to who gets it when.

The answer to the tootsie pop question is dependant upon temp and pressure... when I was in high school, we actually did a science experiment on this...lol..

Roflmfao... the owl is lying to you
BAD OWL!!! :icon_censored: DROID RAZR MAXXIMIZED!!!! PREPARE TO BE VANQUISHED!!!
The only rational question I have is this-
I understand that it goes out randomly, I've been on board sine the OG Droid... I remember the Froyo fiasco, then Gingerbread, then all the debate surrounding Honeyomb. What I never understood is do they push all the updates at a certain time (I.E. 12:00 am) or do they push them all day long? If I wake up and check my phone in the AM and there's no update, will it be possible that I'd get it later that afternoon? I have no idea about this (all my other devices I've pulled updates online or were rooted), and I'm tired of my phone lying to me saying that it's up to date. Anyone know this?

Since the update is large, my guess - and it is just that - is that it would make sense to send the largest number of them out when other network traffic is lowest, and that there is load balancing going on. So you would probably expect more of them to go out at night when the network is less busy, and fewer, or perhaps none, during peak traffic hours. Just a theory, but I have background in network management and major update pushes were usually scheduled during non-peak times to avoid saturating available bandwidth. It would also make sense to me to prevent people from pulling it until a majority were updated via push. Otherwise, people could quickly oversaturate the network.
