Finally saw it last weekend, and speaking as a Trekkie since the show originally ran on TV when I was a lad, I enjoyed it thoroughly and have zero problems with anything they did.
The whole notion Abrams came up with to portray Trek's universe and history as having changed because the new film begins on a different/parallel timeline was brilliant, and frees future films from the fetters of what we've known before. This allows new ideas to be built upon the framework and characters we know and love.
I wish I was that smart.
