I've got a quick question about the new Continuity feature(s). How do they work? Does it use Bluetooth or Wifi or something? Are they compatible with iPhone 4s and iPad 3?
So then it'll work with the iPad 3 and iPhone 4s?
4S possibly because it will get iOS 8, but Apple does occasionally block features on older devices.
iPad 3 is not listed amount iOS 8 supported devices, so I wouldn't count on it unless we hear different before public launch.
4S doesn't have AirDrop so I don't think so4S possibly because it will get iOS 8, but Apple does occasionally block features on older devices.

The release notes state they are using Bluetooth in B1 but were supposed to use Wi-Fi. So expect this to change as we go forward.

IPad 3 (or IPad with retina display) is listed and is working. I have one.
I hope it will continue to be able to use either Bluetooth or Wifi. There are often situations where my laptop might be plugged into a wired network and my phone is on a wifi that's on a different subnet, where one won't be able to reach the other. Bluetooth would make a useful fallback.
I can't get it to work. Tried it between my iPad air and my iPhone 5S but nothing is "continued"
Is Your Bluetooth icon shown as active during the connection?
