To clarify: Apple's got an event scheduled for the 9th which usually means new product releases in the iOS line, and iOS 8 has been in beta for a while with a "fall" release plan.
We don't know for sure if that means iOS 8 ships on the day of the 9th, or if we'll get a release announcement of when it *will* be shipping in new products and available for upgrades. But we're a hell of a lot more comfortable betting on early; if we're ready for 8 early we at worst are behind a week on other stuff; if we're ready for 8 late we get slammed for some really bad bugs. -- brion On Sep 3, 2014 1:42 PM, "Dan Garry" <[email protected]> wrote: > On 3 September 2014 13:34, Sjoerd de Bruin <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Any source for the release date of iOS 8? >> > > The source was my lead iOS engineer and my user experience designer.
