First Authorized iPhone Reviews Due Today
http://blogs.businesss2.com/Apple/2007/06/first-authorize.html

Only a small group of carefuly selected journalists were given Apple (AAPL) iPhones in advance of the June 29 launch, under strict nondisclosure agreements that specified precisely when they could publish or broadcast their reviews.

Apple 2.0 has learned that that moment is today, at 9 p.m. ET, (6 p.m. PT).

Log on then and you can expect to read (and in some cases watch) detailed reviews from Walt Mossberg of the Wall Street Journal, David Pogue of the New York Times and another half-dozen or so journalists who specialize in new technology.

I know what they're going to say:

Keypad is clunky
EDGE is slow

But I'll be tuning in anyway.

Be watchful for those that say they don't like the keypad to see if they mention that they are Blackberry/Blackjack users. I suspect that people who have been 'trained' on those style keyboards will have a hard time with iPhone at first. Mossberg is probably my third most hated tech jounalist but I will still read his drivel just so I can disagree with it.

I wonder if Leo Laporte got his hands on one.

When are they actually gonna post the stuff?

As it says in the very first post of this thread and in the linked article, 9PM today.

Don't expect to learn anything new though. Do expect some serious bashing.
