Why is this is on AppleTV already but not iTunes Keynote Podcasts yet?

I want to watch it offline but as it is you need to stream it. There's no internet on the train!

Here's the download link I found through the posted podcast. The only version I could find was the 1080p version, so it is a 3.5GB download. If I find any of the other links I will post them in this thread as well.
http://podcasts.apple.com/apple_keynotes_1080p/2014/2014_jun_1080.m4v

Or you can click the link above on your ios device, & it will start streaming on your device.
 
It was Great watching the keynote on my Apple TV. Well done Apple. :)

Sure miss the days of the hardware announcements.:(
 
I think that Apple has done everything right with this keynote. It was all about developers and they did get plenty of stuff to be happy about, including features that might hint at coming hardware. If metal is that efficient, it could mean an Apple TV that will be really good at running games - as iOS will, it could definitely become even more a focus of gaming studios, especially in the combination of having the users that spend the most money on apps. And Craig Federighi was really great at what he was doing.

I can understand if users of one side - either iOS or OSX - aren't overwhelmed but for me using both, I loved the preview. Yes, Apple has the same problem as MS has - they cannot move extremely fast, it takes a new OS release to introduce larger updates, but I'm fine with that.

I wouldn't want to type longer texts on an ios-style keyboard either. Swype or Google's swipe keyboard are way better, but we will be seeing these two on ios soon anyway.

+1 :) Being able to continue working in whatever device is just great and answering or rejecting calls on the Mac while your phone is somewhere around the house just fantastic.

I am also very intrigued by the Wi-Fi calling feature.

I used to be with T-Mobile on a Samsung S4 and loved the Wi-Fi feature. It was immensely useful specially when travelling abroad without incurring any roaming charges. All you needed was a Wi-Fi connection. I heard that time that it is a kernel level implementation and hence iOS devices can't have that feature.

Now iOS 8 makes it possible!!! Big question is will AT&T implement it? Or will there be additional charge to use it?
 
con·ti·nu·i·ty - can't wait! Yosemite is what Mavericks should have been. A welcome design refresh, and some seriously useful features.

lol at the comments from people who don't understand what the WWDC keynote is: "What? No hardware announcements? Unimpressive!"
 
I was kind of surprised that most of the new "features" have been on Google's Android for quite a while. For instance notifications is a direct copy of how Android works; pull down and flick away. Not saying theres anything wrong with copying it, it's by far the best way currently to implement them.
 
One of the things that seems to have been overlooked by most is Tim ending the keynote by getting everyone involved to stand up. He didn't take credit for all the work, as Steve was sometimes known to.

Meaning when someone succeeds Tim, we won't panic like we did when Steve Jobs stepped down.

Funny I have a nexus and I don't particularly love swype but most people do. I just don't find it as accurate as I would like.
 
This keynote was very good. I know some of you expected new hardware, but this is developers conference and I think they were blown with Metal and Swift. And all those Kits (HomeKit, HealthKit...)

Good job :apple:
 
I’ve watched every keynote since 2007 and a few older ones. I have to say, this keynote returned to a format that I like better. Cook’s bits, mostly the numbers and introduction/closing were a lot more focussed this time, leaving more room for the actual interesting part of the conference. Adding a developer-focussed block to the program also shifted the attention to the target audience again, showing that the WWDC keynote isn’t just for consumers or the general public. Federighi’s presentation skills have greatly improved over the years, he’s becoming a very likeable host. Too bad, that he’s pretty much taken over the whole keynote at this point, a bit more variety would do good.

They also considerably reduced the number of cheesy marketing lines and superlatives and product or design videos, bringing more personality in with jokes and jabs at competitors. This keynote was almost pure amusement and a good evening of entertainment.
