I knocked over an old woman as I was running home to get on my wifi network, so I could download iOS 8.

That was you?? Because of you, I am now in the hospital with a broken hip, and I am trying to get them to delay my surgery, because the iOS 8 download over their crappy Wifi network is so slow!
 
Interesting, I have upgrade running on iPod 5g and iPad mini, but 4s still says there is no update available.

*** update **** on iPod, it initially said 4 minutes, but has now jumped to 10 minutes, the iPad (which I started second) has finessed and is preparing update!
 
I always follow what Apple is up to but I haven't the foggiest idea what is new in iOS8. Probably the first time that's been the case for me with either iOS or OSX.

there's a huge list of what's new in ota update. READ IT.
 
Anyone else getting "Update Requested... Your software update request has been received. You will be notified when the update has been downloaded and is ready to install."

Normally, when I hit download it begins immediately.

I got that and I just waited a bit and now it says "Downloading" although I'm not seeing any progress bar.

Major iOS update is always like this- a lot of waiting.
 
Hard to update on 16GB devices too... full of apps... looking forward to 64GB of storage
 
All this new stuff is incredible. Give me my black Mac keyboard, with swipe and I'll be, as usual, a perfectly happy :apple: consumer/customer.
 
Installing now on my iPhone 5- its last hurrah before I get a 6 later this fall.

Not gonna install it on my iPad Mini because its A5 chip is the same as the 4S and Im not ok with a laggy experience. It'll stay on 7.1.2
