Palm Pre 2 launching on Verizon February 17th?

We’ve been ribbing the Pre 2 lately for being so far past its prime that a launch of any kind on Verizon is starting to seem implausible — but it looks like these guys might still be willing to throw it out on shelves for a little while. The latest rumor, via an internal product page at a third party retailer, says that the phone will launch in “all channels” on February 17th… just in time for it to be made even less appealing by whatever new gear HP shows off at its event on the 9th . Wrong place, wrong time, wrong hardware — but hey, if you absolutely must have webOS 2.0 as soon as possible on a carrier-branded device on the States, this thing is still your only way to ride.
