It appears that Apple handed out scads of iPads to reviewers weeks ago with the understanding that the reviews could not appear until today.

Eric Savitz at Barrons rounds up the critics so I don’t have to.

He missed the one I find the most interesting so far: English actor and writer Stephen Fry writing in Time about his visit to Apple and his interviews with Schiller, Ive and Jobs.
