If you think about releases are always done on a Tuesday. New DVD's hit the shelves on Tuesdays, new games Tuesday also, Carriers release new devices on Tuesday as well. With this being a theme for all other new releases why wouldn't work for this. Other companies will be releasing products just prior to December first. So Blackberry releases their update after the rest of them so that's the name on peoples mind. Sorta like the last song you hear before going to bed, you wake up with that song ringing in your head.
Edit: this time frame would also allow bugs to get worked out in time for Q1 QNX Phone releases (Also on a Tuesday).
If you were going for interesting dates, a slight mod would have been more palindromish:
Dec 20, 2012 or
1220 2012 (if there had been a 21st month it would have worked better - now that I think about it, that is probably when rim will release it - in the 21st month)

Hah!
The catnip mouse is practically mine already if that's your best guess!
my guess is December 7, 2011 - Day 1 of DevCon (Asia)
Yes ,,, DEVCON in Bangkok Thailand ,,, this would be a good date to announce release of Playbook 2.0 with all the new features!! .. and still well in time for the XMAS period ....
I'll say by the end of November. I give up a lot of things around Thanksgiving every year. My version of lent I guess. I think I'll give up both my PlayBook and 9900 if something doesn't give.
