I'm not sure how reliable or trustworthy this website is, but I thought some people on the board might like to see this little bit of info.This site claims that a logistics guy confirmed that Blizzard has booked a holding area for a bunch of Diablo 3 boxes.

"Even though many fans think that Diablo 3 in this country certainly strike a meteor in the Cologne Cathedral is, we can present you first insure even realize that the daemon is traveling quite conventional - what we regard even at our source and the latest news the release date would be
As we learned today afternoon by a reliable person to be in the 7th and 8 Calendar week (yep, this year), tens, expect several meters high pallets packed with the Diablo 3 standard versions and collector's editions in a major international hub. The destination: the big German store chains like Media Markt, Saturn and how it all hot.
The shipping date could not disclose the source for understandable reasons, but if you take from 10-14 days, starting from large warehouse, it could be Diablo 3 end of February or early March in the stores. The so-called "gold" version and the manuals should therefore be straight in the press. Incidentally, we were also told that Diablo 3 was registered in November 2011 and was ever canceled again. KW 7 / 8 have also been booked under the reservation, but we go out assume that it works this time. As far as our current information. Once more we know about, of course, now there's an update.
well you have to order shipping ahead of time, so this is very well possible. they claim this has also been happening in november and was then canceled. this would mean at the begining of march the game would hit the stores.
if this is true, i'm sure blizzard will announce the release within the coming 2 weeks.

Yeah, I saw this posted on another website and I had to let everyone know. I'm so anxious and ready for this game's release date to be announced. The game looks amazing I cannot wait to get my hands on it!!

I totally agree that Blizzard will announce the release date within the next couple weeks.
Isnt it funny how the closer you get to an actual release announcement, the more fake and real leaks come out. Things you wanna believe start pouring out but who knows what is true or not.
well retailers don't need to know ahead of time, however big shipments you have to declare. so this might actually be true.
yep, they really dont need to know, and due to this being online only, a first date patch is very simple... EVEN if this is true, it means nothing for the release date...
this only goes along with my release date feb, game march-ish
Activision Blizzard Fourth Quarter Calendar 2010 Conference Call happened on Feb. 9th so that is a good guestimate of when the 2011 Conference Call will happen.
It is forum threads like this that keep me happy from day to day with Blizzard lacking on the official site news articles, blue posts, and beta patches.
Here is a list I put together from the official beta patch page. http://us.battle.net...opic/3123246179
(yes I realize that the starting date is after the first few patches, I'm just posting information obtained from Blizzard)
Beta test begins: 9/20 (this comes from the 15th anniversary page)
Patch 1: no info
Patch 2: 9/7
Patch 3: 9/14 - 7 days
Patch 4: 9/26 - 12 days
Patch 5: 11/3 - 38 days
Patch 6: 11/17 - 14 days
Patch 7: 12/1 - 14 days
Patch 8: 12/15 - 14 days
Patch 9: 12/20 - 5 days
Currently - 19 days
Well I know I want to believe, and it does seem to be one of the most believable "leaks" we've seen. Then again a lot people have been thinking Feb/March so you could say this goes long with what a lot people are thinking.

Just waiting for them to get a "confirmed" date for the feb meeting , I think we -may- get info the week before, or the day of.
I'm a bit surprised that the conference call doesn't already have a confirmed date. But then again, I am still ignorant of many things.
