Exactly! I'm thinking they may have given exclusivity to one of the carriers (rumors say AT&T for Thanksgiving) and they do not want to sell the phone until AT&T releases it. Kinda like how the iPhone was released.

Exclusivity may be possible for AT&T but not for too long ... then again most other carriers cannot use it even though their GSM network based (Tmobile USA does not use any existing 3G band - their special they'll use 1700 & 2100 North American bands, the 2100 is NOT the same range that Europe uses). Also other carriers cannot afford to use it like WEST or others.
Rogers Wireless here in Canada is rumored also to carry this phone.

Well the K850 is now on Amazon.com, which I guess counts as it being available in the US...
EDIT: It's sort of available: Only two units available. Looks really shady and unofficial for Amazon.

SE has never had phone launches from retailers on time...only through grey market. Expect it to be at SonyStyle around Christmas time for an exorbitantly over-market price (will probably be ~650 USD while the market will be pulling in the low to mid 400s).
Look for a trusty grey market dealer that offers 1 year warranty plans. Might want to wait a few more weeks. Besides, you'll save huge amounts of money. This phone's market value will deperciate rapidly
