What makes you so sure?
I mean they've hinted countless times that their gear's coming to Harmattan imminently.
It's just so hard to believe them, given how often they've hyped & then shown very little.
They seem to be focused on supporting all the Linux platforms (Tizen/MeeGo) Seeing as the N9 is the only Commercially released device is makes sense for them to release this for it. A reasonably large user base compared to Tizen and other MeeGo distrubutions

i still would rather use meego over tizen anyday.. unless they changed the homescreen to not look like android lol
if nokia doesnt want to support meego why dont they sell it? seems like they are getting rid of everything.. meego, symbian, vertu, 10,000 eymployes, etc
im waiting patiently for 1.3, and if it doesnt come then.. oh well. a lot of new phones are coming out, and two new OS's are coming. i probably wont ever sell my n9 still

In all honesty, from what Arie and others have said, PR1.3 is either a relatively small deal or a partial regression. Given that, I'm not so fixated on whether or when the N9 gets it. If PR1.3 does come out, I'm not gonna load it until all of the developers of the key apps and mods I use have upgraded those programs. I am pretty happy with my N9 status quo, so I'm gonna be pretty risk avoidant with PR1.3, which sounds like more risk than reward at the moment.
I am in agreement with people talking up BB10. It looks goooood to me, assuming RIM gets this latest OS + device to a store near me. That BB10 UI is pretty much a full knock off of the N9 plus Android apps, so I'm interested--and the little innovations RIM previews are cool, too.
All the new stuff seems pretty good to me, so none of us will suffer. That's the good news--we have lots of options.

it was the same case for pr 1.3 for the n900, it was a long time coming but it eventually came... so i don't see a reason why pr 1.3 for the n9 shouldn't to come, it will happen eventually... and if not oh well lol
So I don't mind of there's a big delay for the final one, in fact, I prefer that there is.

I'll take closer look at that video, I haven't actually looked at it yet, thanks.

Yup, Marxian's post 100% confirmed it, we just don't know when exactly.
Sounds like only a matter of days or weeks though....

There has not been any official confirmation (post only suggest that there might be some internal testing going on), due to latest news it might even be that PR1.2 will be the last official release. But we can always hope that miracles happen.

That correspondence with Marxian sounded like a pretty clear indicator to me that a release is imminent.
But given everything that's happened in the last few days, it's not out of the realm of possibility that the plug's pulled.
Unlikely though IMO, then again, it's been a very odd couple of days, it could always get weirder...
