Does Anyone know how to get the 1.8 update early to see what it is like if anyone knows how to do this send me a email at [email protected] or u can just reply to my question here on minecraft forums so if anyone knows how to do this it would be nice to know
The closest thing to an early update are the snapshots.
Other than that, you're out of luck.
This is probably what the OP was talking about when they said that somebody else had a "jar file" for 1.8.
You can get snapshots by clicking the "edit profile" button in the launcher and checking the developmental versions option (heed the warning about world corruption that comes up; you definitely don't want to load your main world into a snapshot then go back to an older version), then selecting a snapshot from the drop-down list of versions (14w07a is the latest version).
You can play the snapshots released for that version by changing to that version in your profile in the launcher. If you want to play 1.8's full release you need to wait until it is officially released by Mojang.
Just be patient, and wait.

TheMasterCaver's First World - possibly the most caved-out world in Minecraft history - includes world download.
TheMasterCaver's World - my own version of Minecraft largely based on my views of how the game should have evolved since 1.6.4.
Why do I still play in 1.6.4?
