Because 6 weeks is like 6 years in phone years.
If there were other devices coming out on VZW that had better specs, but afaik there aren't any new phones (other than the droid 4, which isn't really a competitor) coming out between 11/17 and 12/31. I agree with the phone years thing, but in this case I want the things only a nexus can give me and the other features/specs of the phone still aren't going to be surpassed before 12/31, so I personally would not call it "outdated" if it releases even on 12/31.
