WotLK release date?

There are two possible dates (or periods) mentioned in several news releases by Vivendi (wow's publisher) and or other press releases:

8 september 2008, unlikely but it would place it a week before the launch of Warhammer Online

Any date between October 1st and December 2008, I put my money on a date in November. Why? The Open Beta is up an running, Blizz is releasing tons of in game info and it would be more dastardly to stick a knife in the back of Warhammer a few weeks after they they launched (mwuhahhaha )

O you racist bastard XD but yea you got a point

I already aimed for a release date somewhere near christmas and with your little backstab theory its only more logical

It'll be just a bit before christmas to get the christmas season speniding in thus making even more money then they already do

aye as i thought aswell.... blasted i'm gonna need a ton of money.... so far i got a list of 10 friggin awesome games coming out which i want and they are all coming out october-december
