Reviews for iPhone 5 came out on the Tuesday before release at 9 PM Est. Safe to assume reviews will be out at 9 again?

The thing is, the iPad mini was announced a full day earlier. So we might see reviews a few day earlier. I wouldn't be surprised, though, to see reviews become available only on Thursday (Europe), or Wednesday evening (US).

I'm curious as well.

Reviews for the Nook HD are appearing online today- (perhaps as a determent or just to hype awareness) very favorable.
It seems to stack up quite nicely.
Sure there is a knock on the apps/video store- but at this size you're are looking for a nice light portable e-reader that does a bit more in a pinch.

IMO- it's a worthy contender that has been getting overlooked.

What do you mean a full day earlier? I'm just referring to the 2 day difference. The mini is releasing this Friday so the reviews should be up by Wednesday some time.

Can anyone tell me the name of the 2D side-scrolling action game that was being played on the Verge video review?

The game looked like awesome fun! I want to download it, but I have no idea what it is. Help would be greatly appreciated!

NY Times: Over all, the Mini gives you all the iPad goodness in a more manageable size, and it’s awesome. You could argue that the iPad Mini is what the iPad always wanted to be.

"Sadly, the Mini doesn’t gain Apple’s supercrisp Retina display. Nobody’s going to complain about the sharpness — it packs in 163 pixels per inch (ppi) — but it’s not the same jaw-dropping resolution as the big iPad (264 ppi). Gotta hold something back for next year’s model, right? "

I read the whole review. I was never going to post the whole review. So I posted the conclusion. People can read additional details for themselves.
