The A8 processor uses 2 billion transistors. This is twice as many as the previous A7 chip. What does this mean? I will explain:

We have all heard about the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, and Apple Watch. You may have even heard something about Apple Pay.
But what didn’t they talk about? Apple obviously only talks about things that they want to talk about. They don’t talk about future products or what their plans are.

Yesterday, on September 9, Apple announced two new iPhones: the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus.

Apple has been testing beta software for Apple TV since WWDC on June 2 which will give users continuity between devices. After all, Apple TV is an offshoot of iOS so an iOS update brings an Apple TV update.
They released the GM seed alongside iOS 8 GM and Xcode 6 GM after announcing the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, and Apple Watch.
First, you need to be enrolled in Apple’s iOS developer program which costs $99/year. Then, you need to register your Apple TV UDID with your developer profile.
Next, plug the Apple TV into your PC or Mac using a micro-USB cable. Then, plug the Apple TV into a power source.
The Apple TV will go into recovery mode. Hold Option on a Mac or Shift on a PC and click Restore Apple TV. Then navigate to the Apple TV GM installation file.
There were no release notes for Apple TV GM like there were for iOS 8 GM and Xcode 6 GM.

Xcode 6 is available to anyone with an Apple developer account. While previous GM seeds were only available to Mac OS and iOS developers which cost $99/year, Xcode 6 GM is available to Safari developers as well, which is free.

The iOS 8 GM Seed is now available to developers. The GM seed is the full version. It is not a beta.
It was available immediately after they announced the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus and the Apple Watch.
If you are a developer, you probably already have iOS 8 Beta 5 and can simply go to Settings -> General -> Software Update.
If you don’t have it already, you need to download the file and follow these instructions. If you are not a developer, no worries. The public release will be next Wednesday, September 17.
