See for yourself. To be honest, I'm not sure what to make of it myself. I may not go at all after hearing about this. :(

That stuff like the absence of preaching, debating morality and the lack of technobabble means it's not Trek.

There are. I for one was somewhat heartened by Abrams' interview on "The Colbert Report" in which he basically said that instead of trying to make a great 'Trek film, he tried to make an intelligent A/A film which happened to be set in the 'Trek world.
