The calendar may have flipped over to 2012 yesterday, but just because it's a new year doesn't mean that the Motorola DROID 4 will stop its 2011 leaking ways. The latest in a long line of DROID 4 leaks has revealed that cases for the still-unannounced 4G LTE slider have begun arriving at indirect Verizon retailers. If the above image isn't enough to satisfy your hunger for all things DROID 4, you can find another shot of these cases at the source link below. Or just wait another 15 minutes for the next D4 leak to show up.

Unfortunately for those of you waiting on the edge of your seat for more DROID 4 release date news, there's no new information on that front. The fact that cases for the device are already hitting some stores may suggest that we're getting close to a launch, though, adding credence to the rumor that the latest member of the DROID family could be just a month away. That may seem far off for folks dying to get their mitts on a D4, but many expect the handset to be shown off at CES next week, so at least that might help pass the days until it's finally time to open that wallet at your friendly neighborhood Verizon store.
