Re: is there a mirror for 3.3.0?
We only provide mirror links for full client patches. Background downloads do not count. You have around 1+ month to download this file so we're not really worried about your speed. :) (Source)

Does this mean that 3.3 is still a month away?
If 3.3 dropped exactly 1 month after that announcement, it would make the release date December 22 (23rd on EU realms), which is the week of Christmas. I have a very hard time believing that Blizzard would release a major content patch, even if it isn't the full instance, that close to Christmas.
My best guess is a few weeks earlier; either next week (December 1) or the following (December 8). This will give us December to work through the first 4 bosses and adjust to any buffs/nerfs and also give Blizzard enough time to finish off the Arena season. I would think that wing two of Icecrown would then drop right after New Year's, with Arthas FINALLY coming near the end of January.
Although I cannot WAIT for 3.3 and to finally face Arthas, I have to say that in this case anticipation is half the fun.
I will leave you with my guesses:
Patch 3.3 launch: December 8th
2nd wing unlocked: January 5th
3rd wing unlocked: January 26th
Arthas unlocked: February 16th

What a terrifying quote. I'd hope that he meant to write "You've had around 1+ months to download this file..." which would make a lot more sense, and would not preclude the possibility of the patch dropping next week, which is my guess.
I'm on the next week bandwagon, two weeks tops.
No patch out today :(
I guess Yigi's original estimates are gonna be right.
Looks like my predictions of the 3rd wing are off: Blizz just stated that it will be available on January 19th.
Lich King 2 weeks after that?
Faster than I expected, more fun for everyone!
