Any idea when this will be available in other languages? Preferrably German?
Can I do a straight upgrade to 12.1.2 from SEPM/SEP 11.0.7200.1147 then?
Yes, you can do an upgrade to 12.1.2 from any version of 11.x

The more important question was: When can we expect the German version?
Not sure. Only Symantec can answer that.

Do we have any time frame for Windows to Go (Windows 8 USB) support?

No. There is no available time frame on when Windows to Go would be supported.
