Early release for Disintegration vinyl?

Interpunk and CD Wow have the Disintegration vinyl listed for release on March 2nd, two weeks ahead of the cd release date. Not sure if that's a mistake or if the vinyl will be out first.
(Thanks Aaron and Lindsey)

Update: "Distributors are currently listing the Disintegration vinyl 2LP to come out on March 2nd. Since all vinyl releases these days arrive late anyway, it probably won't really be out until the 16th. The distributors will probably be revising the release date at some point just as the 3CD was changed from the February release." (Thanks to Chris @ Ideal Copy)
