Yep, there are actually lots of little bugs in IOS 8.1 and it is actually a 
bit of a pain. Oh, how I wish I had not yet updated:). I also notice a lot 
of sluggishness that I did not notice when running IOS 7.1.2. I know the 
email issue has been a major complaint and I think there are issues with the 
volume but I do not tend to use mine much for email so can only say from 
what I have heard from others.
Have a great rest of the weekend!
