No word yet on the new release date for any territory. And we're still awaiting SCEA's response to the matter, which we hope to update with shortly.
Update: Media Molecule has released a statement noting that it has an official patch ready for day one, but "a decision was made within Sony that the right thing to do for quality and support of people with no on-line was to replace existing disks." The patch is still ready and the post suggests it will likely "go live at the same time as the game," which still has no new release date.
Update 2: For a closer look at the music track in question, check out our report here.
Update 3: (2:54PM) SCEA says the game has been delayed one week for the US, now coming the week of October 27.
SCEE statement:
"During the review process prior to the release of LittleBigPlanet, it has been brought to our attention that one of the background music tracks licensed from a record label for use in the game contains two expressions that can be found in the Qur'an. We have taken immediate action to rectify this and we sincerely apologise for any offence that this may have caused.
"We will confirm the new launch date shortly."
