Internet Recovery will download and install whatever Mac OS your computer came with:

From: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

If you use Internet Recovery to reinstall OS X, it installs the version of OS X that originally came with your computer. After installation is finished, use the Mac App Store to install related updates or later versions of OS X that you have previously purchased.

So essentially its not a clean reboot? I do that method I get Mavericks > Macc App Store > OSX Yosemite. Overlayed on top of Mavericks.
 
What a bummer. Came right home from school cause I have some errands to run and wanted to install Yosemite while I was out, only to find out now, that its not available. Thats a bad apple.
 
Can't wait. This was the most exciting thing about the Keynote today. Wonder how it will perform on my Late 2011 MBP. Back to refreshing the App Store.
 
AWESOME! Looks like the GM3 Redeem Code in the iOS Dev Center actually did gave me the final through the Mac App Store. Behold:

And now I have the full ISO for it as well, not just an incremental update.

It worked. Just redeemed the code again and it showed up. Will check if it is the release build then..

I haven't been outside since 18:15. Only a few yards from my car to the front door so I can't really comment on the temperature. It's certainly dark though. 21:17 now where I am.

One of my cats, Billski Squeakelstiltskin, is staring at an unopened letter on the unlit keyboard of my MacBookPro5,2. I know what's in it because there's another with the same postmark. It's about audiology. Billski doesn't know, he can only guess. I'm going to the kitchen to get a bottle of cider then I'll open the letter for him and we'll see whether he guessed right.

Keep us posted.
 
Check "Featured" not "Updates"

It will most likely be there, for "purchase" (free) than under Updates. (not yet though as of this post) - though, I don't recall how Mavericks appeared.
 
Sadly I see that they never fixed the obnoxious brightness on icons. Especially the traffic lights. For the first time, I am not interested in updating to a new version of OS X. My laptop has it, and it pains me. I will not be upgrading my new Mac Pro.
 
Are you sure? Check the build code.

My Mac mini now says 14A389. My MacBook Pro (which is on wireless and can't get the download fast enough before I leave work) is still GM3 and shows 14A388a.

What I grabbed from the Mac App Store through the Redeem Code is definitely the final!

Just upgrade everything you use. Once you've not looked at Mavericks in a while, you'll be used to the new Yosemite look and Mavericks will seem dull in comparison.

This happened to me after moving to iOS 7.
