None of them show the phone. They are just periodicals. I can write one based on what I know right now.

Did you read the reviews? Look at Anand's review.

Yep, he just "wrote about it."

From Walt Mossberg September 17, 2013 at 6:07 pm PT
After a week of testing the iPhone 5s, I like it and can recommend it for anyone looking for a premium, advanced smartphone. If you are an iPhone fan with any model older than the iPhone 5, the new 5s will be a big step up. If you own an iPhone 5, there’s less of a case for upgrading, unless you want the fingerprint reader and improved camera. You can get the new OS free of charge.

Some reviews are posted 3 days before the phones go on sell at 9 PM! So i'm guessing we'll see a few reviews tomorrow!

Its actually hilarious to see them show the phone's function on a simulator.

Where is the pre-release video?

Where is your evidence of a simulator? AnandTech doesn't do video reviews. Pogue from the NYT has a 2minute video.

You act like it is some giant conspiracy, which is hilarious.

Show me a video of someone using a iPhone before release date and I will gladly say its true. I will give you the usatoday guy is holding two versions that he probably filmed at the keynote like everyone else.

iPhone 6 review release-time?

Someone in another forum said that "prominent publications and blogs already have review units in hand. Sometime later this week but before Friday, Apple will allow them to publish their reviews".

It's not really surprising that they get the phones early. This was always the case.

Hate to burst your bubble, but Apple does send preview units to selected editors/tech writers (presumably the same groups invited to the keynote) before the actual release date to review.

I guess they figure some more press coverage before the actual release date doesn't harm anything.

Apple cherry picks reviewers to give early units to. We'll see the reviews tomorrow night

Reviewers don't have theirs. They will have to wait until Friday. Friday you will see tons of reviews, the first coming from Australia.

This is not the typical pattern. We'll get reviews probably on Wednesday.

Hey whats up with goose island. It disappeared off of all the shelves in Colorado?

Strange, they were out there a couple of weeks ago for a migration week. Tasty stuff!

Does Colorado have strict liquor distribution laws?

eta: you should be able to get 312 at the very least, since they are owned by InBev. Thankfully they haven't touched the good stuff.

Looks like there is an influx of "fake reviews" out now... Looking forward to the real ones on Friday. :p

I use to buy from two different vendors and they disappeared 2 months ago. It was my favorite beer.

Honkers ale and Indian pale ale were my favorite. You get way more options than us though.

Colorado has some awesome beers too. I am happy that Goose is available in Georgia now. Otherwise I will be making a lot of road trips when I move.
