I'm like the last person who wants to start these types of threads but after now hearing information from two people who I trust and have been correct for me in the past with regards to release dates, and I haven't seen a thread with this date I figured I'd throw my hat into the ring. As usual, take it with a boulder sized grain of salt....
One of my friends has been a high producing retail sales associate in multiple locations with Verizon for about 8 years, in addition to holding some other corporate position with them, and has been reliable with trying to pinpoint releases in the past, told me first week of December when I asked him.
My brother in law owns 3 authorized retail stores in central FL today told me December 1st when I inquired on the release date. Every other Android device I've been interested in and have gotten from him, he always tells me ahead of time the release date that he has at the time from his regional manager, and he has been correct. He usually gets advance notice so he can order and stuff and also gets training and promo materials and orders dummy phones.
Nothing confirmed or anything but the 1st is a Thursday which is typical of Verizon device launches and I now have a knowledgeable Verizon sales rep tell me first week and my brother in law tell me the 1st so I guess I'm looking forward to that date. If it comes sooner then great.
