It wasn't the list of supported devices during the presentation either. I'm wondering if that's because they EOL'd it when the iPad w/retina (or should I say the one with the lightning connector) was released.

Actually it's there, I was looking for iPad 3 since I saw iPad 4

I was pretty impressed. TouchID for thirdparty apps made me very happy, and I hope to see more allowance of third-party in place of stock for apps and not just keyboard.

Maybe not in this iteration but the seed for doing exactly that has now been planted.

That's good to know. I have an iPad 3 & I'd be more willing to put the beta on that versus my rMini.

Me too! Was about to get a nexus 7. Or a S5. Now I'm gonna wait till the 6 comes out!

It's kinda eerie, really. I mean, I was planning to get a S5 or M8 this week, ha ha

I'm glad they finally added those features that have been in android for years. Not so keen on them trying to bash android every 2 seconds in the presentation, only to turn around a minute later and unveil a "feature" that has been lacking on IOS for years, while being on android.

As long as the phone and messages app works on an iOS beta I'm good

Guys, if it supports iPad 2, then of course it supports all later iPads. But I think there'll be limitations in some features in older devices, as always.

And of course, add me to the blown away list, I think this is the iOS presentation in which they have released more features at once, and AirDrop will finally work as it should!!!

I agree with the others here. As huge as iOS 7 was, iOS 8 seems even more of an advance with the multitude of features. If Apple does open up the beta to non-debs (like they did with OSX), I'm in. Otherwise, I'll live vicariously through those that have access.

As soon as this comes out I am seriously going to contemplate updating everything. My last hold outs are the RdMini 4s and 5s. As someone who has been using these things since the start there has never been a better time to upgrade my OS.

Yea, Apple gave us most of our wishes in one wop. I'm extremely content and cant wait to get iOS 8 and OSX Yosimite on devices. I'm just hoping my 4 year old MacBook Pro gets all the features of Yosimite. I'm thinking some of those will require BlueTooth 4.0 which I dont have.......well...... time for an upgrade

Ehhhh, you'll change your mind in another day or so.

Ha ha , maybe. But I don't think so.
