Perhaps I've missed something, but let me question something here: did you give notice to your landlord BEFORE you started looking (or even found) a place to go to? I was under the impression that you just about had something lined-up.
Putting one's self into that situation is totally unheard of here in NYC and I would imagine it's pretty much the same in SF also. You're fortunate, if I understand what you've written correctly, that at least you have the potential to renig on the verbal agreement with your landlord.
Anyone legit that's looking for a roommate will accept thirty days notice, as should your landlord for moving out (though landlord's are not required to take thirty days; some can take ninety as a minimum).
