I've been watching the rumors on this one for a while now, and still can't tell you IF your Lumia will see this update or not. The Nokia page found here: http://www.nokia.com/mea-en/support/faq/?action=singleTopic&topic=FA141614 states that all Lumia devices except for the 52x series will see the GDR2/Amber update which will enable the Glance feature that currently only 925 users are enjoying.
Glance is Nokia's non-lock, lock screen for use at night, or when you just don't want your phone to sleep completely. The screen will display a clock, a battery indicator and the amazing double tap to wake feature. Most of this is superficial at best, but remember, the sources being quoted are from Europe, so 810 owners should take note that the step-brother of the 82x series was only available here.
Now, Nokia does directly point to the 520 and 521 as not getting the update, most likely due to the lower quality display hardware, so maybe the 810 is being lumped in with the others that are getting it. Either way, I'll believe it when my phone says "update available" and not before then.
