SunSpider 1.0.2 is all over the map on iOS 8.0 for some reason.
425 ms: iOS 7.1.2
424 ms: iOS 8.0, but most of the time it was over 450, and sometimes over 480.

iOS 8 / Yosemite advertises that you can use SMS/MMS on Macs and iPads. Well, it turns out the only way to activate it is to use iMessage. As far as I'm concerned, that partially defeats the point of sticking with SMS/MMS. They should simply offer an option to segregate SMS/MMS from iMessage. It would make things much simpler IMO.

Maybe I'm imagining it, but TouchID seems a touch faster.
Looking forward to trying 1Password with TouchID support in iOS 8.

Time Lapse is an interesting new camera option:
https://www.apple.com/ca/ios/whats-new/photos/
Capture the experience of the sun setting, a city street bustling or a flower blooming with the new Time-lapse mode in Camera. iOS 8 does all the work, snapping photos at dynamically selected intervals. The result is a video showing an accelerated sequence of the photos over time. Just set up your device to shoot what you want. Swipe to select Time-lapse mode, tap the Record button, and let Camera record as long as you choose.
Also, the Photos application is better organized.

My banking apps, Netflix, and nPlayer work fine. So does Live Cams Pro.

Can't test Handoff because none of my Macs support it.
