Trend Points to Verizon iPhone Available February 3?

"Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain" -Wizard of Oz

In June of last year, Apple selected the dates of Thursday 24th to Sunday the 27th for its iPhone 4 weekend launch. In addition, I discovered that Verizon Wireless (VZW) typically launches their new devices on Thursdays. While still unofficial that the VZW iPhone is the device that will be announced on next Tuesday (1/11/11). The 3rd of February now seems like the ideal date of release if both Apple and Verizon continue to stick to their trends.
