Oct. 29 flagged as Microsoft Windows Phone 8 launch

Oct. 29 flagged as Microsoft Windows Phone 8 launch

Looks like we'll get some Microsoft trick-or-treat gifts as new reports point to October as the time Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 devices are officially unleashed on the market.

An anonymous source speaking with ZDNet said a series of Softie-sponsored events point to some specific squares on the calendar as key dates for devices touting the new OS.

Windows 8 will be available to the public Oct. 26, but it looks like Microsoft is planning a pre-launch party the day before to officially unveil the OS.

It'll actually share the stage with the Surface RT, ZDNet's source said, in a New York City event. Microsoft has confirmed the tablet is going on sale Oct. 26, so no big surprise there.

There's more...

A few days later - Oct. 29 - the source reported Windows Phone 8 gets its official launch. Rumor has it the sendoff will be in San Francisco or Los Angeles.

Apparently, the 29th is thought of as a "consumer launch."

Devices packing Windows Phone 8 should be available a few weeks later, or early November.

We've already seen some Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 devices thanks to Samsung's revelation of some key products at IFA 2012 Tuesday. Among them are the Ativ S, a Windows 8 smartphone, and the Ativ Tab, which runs on Windows RT, though we don't have release dates for these devices yet.

Christmas can come early, right?
