Nothing release just yet. Could be delayed a little as they are pulling HealthKit apps due to an issue with health kit being found.

Probably appear in about 20 mins, which would be 10AM PST, which is when I think they usually release things.

That's terrible how many poor saps will blindly update without realising.

They should have put a huge warning on screen listing the devices that won't work... oh wait!!

I'm the opposite can't wait to go Yo! I ran from USB whilst waiting for iOS 8 die to my extensive use of iCloud.

Just checked my contract... It expires March '15 so I'll probably be upgrading to the iPhone 6 plus. I've done a quick bit of research on the internet and on youtube .

The clock on the home screen is fantastic. These suggested words are doing my nut.

Any ideas why I have lost my Camera Roll album from the 'Photos'?

There were 600+ photos there, and it seems to have been replaced with a Recently Added album instead?

A weird keyboard and a health app...

Lots of subtle things, most of which you won't notice, that's how it always is.

Look in 'All Photos' instead when attaching.

Am I now in trouble for not proclaiming it to be the most revolutionary thing since the invention of DOS?

I am buying a 6, we have a lot of Apple products but I am not blind to their shortcomings or the hype.

Your blinkered, obsessive approach rather kills any credibility you might have ever had.

Broaden that narrow mind...

If they're that subtle you don't know they're there, it's bit pointless.

5.8GB?!?!?!?!? Dear God, what bloatware. Is this how Apple will try to persuade people to buy the more expensive larger models?
