A number of iPhone reviews were released today on the net: NYTimes, WSJ, MSNBC and USAToday. All seem to agree that the iPhone is a worthy device with few flaws.

I'm amazed!

I'm not at all surprised that the iPhone is living up to the hype. It seems like a great device. But it seems out of character for Apple to give copies to reviewers before the actual release. Maybe Apple's letting go of its secrecy, or maybe they're just learning to make exceptions.

It is not out of character. The iPhone was announced months ago. If they had never announced, THEN it would be out of character to see reviews before the release.

Is it living up to the hype? To be honest, I really want one but I'll wait and see how the 2.0 version is.

Let's set aside the desire to write applications for the iPhone. It kinda sounds like it's major failing at this point is that it's not a great cell phone.

Sounds like everything else is pretty cool. I'm sure somebody I know will get one so I'll be able to get a look at it some time in the near future.
