Just saw that over on FTG.
This makes me glad that Mrs. nwflyboy applied for the Chase Sapphire Preferred card (and got instant approval) a few days ago. We will be focusing our spending on that one for the next few months.
My last application (also the Chase Sapphire Preferred card) was in August (just finished the 3K minimum spend), so I'm hoping we can both hit the special Chase United 60k offer (assuming it does materialize) when it finally pops up in Q1 2012.

I'm in the same boat, pretty pleased with this update as I just got the Sapphire Preffered from Chase - focusing our spend on that as well as the Citi AA cards, not mention we both just did the US Airways 40k.
Looks like I can shut it down for the next few months which is much needed!

unless
unless its misdirection....they may have not liked the early leaked details to credit hounds....so tell everyone its coming the first of the year, and then put it out on Nov 1 for the limited 3 day offering.
I will be jumping on the southwest cards next, so I hope it really does happen 2012, but I may wait until early Nov. to make sure.

The 60K offer is currently only available to elites. Rumor is the offer will be opened to everyone in the future, for a limited time. If you have the offer, there's no reason not to apply for it now.

Again - this is my total speculation (I have no insider information whatsoever):
PLEASE CONSIDER THIS "NON-EXISTING" DEAL IS DEAD ON ARRIVAL...

It's unfortunate that they didn't include CO Elites for the 60K offer. I only get the 40K offer as Plat on CO.
