I'm hoping it's the Tuesday after a soon-to-be-announced double-xp weekend - the 16th of November. 
It'll be either the 9th or the 16th of November. The 2nd is unlikely given the ending of the Halloween Event and the prep for the Rikti Invasion Event the weekend of the 6th. And the 23th is unlikely because I doubt the Devs would want to risk problems with the Issue just before Thanksgiving.

Probably this. i don't recall there ever being an issue released without it being in open beta for at least a week, so i'm pretty confident that November 2nd is right out. i suppose the least satisfying and most accurate answer is "when it's (mostly) ready."

Time to dampen some spirits.
I did some research, and checked the various News posts on the CoH main page. These are the results I got:
4/27/09 - I15 Overview
6/26/09 - I15 Launch
7/15/09 - I16 Overview
9/16/09 - I16 Launch
2/24/10 - I17 Overview
4/28/10 - I17 Launch
8/17/10 - GR/I18 Launch
10/5/10 - I19 Overview
Looking at that pattern, an Issue Launch seems to come almost exactly 2 months after an Issue Overview is posted.
Two months from 10/5 is 12/5, and that's a Sunday, so we need to add 2 days, since Launches seem to happen on Tuesdays.
Using that patten, my expected Launch Date for Issue 19 is December 7, 2010.

Nice researching Kheldarn. Looks like a solid maybe for 12/7.
I find your lack of signature disturbing.
I predict I19 will launch approximately 3 hours before all servers have a melt down.

I predict that the day they do the server maintenance to add I19 to the game, there will be impatient children posting rants about it taking too long in Player Questions.

Why keep it in check? Just don't take the Fitness power set for any of those characters. If you have to play them keep them under 14 or 20. |

Well they said fall which ends Dec 22nd. Christmas event should hit Dec 16thish, and one would imagine that they will want the servers stable by then. My guess Nov 30th.

Are you serious with those predictions? I mean, as far as I know, they're not even beta testing i19 yet, and they've been doing one for every issue for a while now. The issue betas usually run at least a full month.... They'd be breaking with their normal pattern if it drops before December.

Pfft, i19? I'm waiting for i20. I predict i20 will drop after i19.
I guess Nov. 16th or Nov. 23rd.
And...I haven't been able to keep my altitus in check. I made 2 more toons yesterday and 1 a few days ago. when I get an idea... Yeah, I kinda can't stop myself.

Didn't want to say much seeing as how it might be sad news for some, especially when what seems like many of us will be doing a LOT of respecing for the Fitness Pool inherents, which will probably be bleeding over into the Winter Event and Christmas break, pending our number of alts.
*crosses fingers, hopes I'm wrong, and Issue 19 comes out earlier*
Good research, Kheldarn!
A delay in i19 is fine by me, just gives me more time to get all of my "main" characters their accolades/IOs and such and be ready for the inherent fitness overhaul before jumping into whatever Alpha Slot madness there is.

So am I the only one holding my altitis in check till I-19 drops? I'm sure I'm not. Also, all you professional prognosticators, feel free to drop your "I 19 release date" guesses. Im gonna say right after the Holloween stuff. Around early Nov. Any others?
