10:51 am You can pull down and reply to a iMessage without needing to leave the app you're using.

Im sure its been in android...but I like interactive notifications.

being able to swipe down in mail to access the inbox is something I've always wanted. I hate how mavericks locks you out...hope they did something similar in that OS, too.

Well I've been researching some on android because I was considering switching that was one thing I was wondering if it did it. I found out they have something like the Facebook chat bubbles. But not like this. Afaik.

Well well well, looks like Apple finally did what webOS attempted to do. Seamless synchronization among all devices including truly unified messaging.

Very nice, looking forward to 'Yosemite'

P.S. Hoping for a Yosemite Sam logo from Apple

I like the new edit feature set for photos. Might eliminate the need for snap seed for a lot of it.

11:21 am Not clear but that might be limited to photo storage only.
11:20 am First 5GB free, 20GB for 99c a month, 200gb for 3.99 a month.
Ehh?


So $12/year gets you 20gb, instead of the current $20/year gets you 15

And $50 gets you 200gb??? It's currently $100 for 55gb!

Well it is if you have a Mac and set it up to auto save photos from photo stream to iPhone.

I think it works for PC as well.

Doesnt work on PC. Its also not perfect, you need to open Iphoto, let it download the stream and then it creates the event. Its also currently 1000 photos, no videos....

So I guess apples stance on "catching up to google" was right. I may just stay now.
