Well they've already said open beta begins in Jan 2013 so any date before then is just wishful thinking.
Yoshida also mentioned that the first closed beta for the Japan and International servers is scheduled fo go live at the close of September or early October, with closed beta 2 pinned for the Winter followed by an open beta in January 2013.

I'm going to say end of open beta in Feb. Release probably end of March. March 31st.
