There is Apple marketing material they've made available. It's perfectly valid to make judgements from that in my opinion.

It's perfectly invalid to make judgements on usability without using it though.

    You can absolutely pass valid judgement on quality of usability on sight alone.

    If I showed you a picture of a 4 foot wide ship wheel and said I was going to install it in my Mazda Miata - you'd know instantly that it would be unusable, right? How about a screen-shot of a text editor that only shows you one giant character at a time?

    Even as we move away from the ridiculous end of the spectrum of examples - you can know how usable something is based on past experience with similar environments.

Those are screenshots of a beta! How categorically can you judge something until you have the final release in front of you?
