Actually if you had seen this thread you would have known it was scheduled for early February 06' although it didn't give an exact date:

As a follow-up to the thread referenced, the Sea Launch website is now indicating their first 06' launch will be in early February (E-10). Here's the Sea Launch website:

sorry rocatman, this is the first I'd heard on a date set other than Lyngsat saying "1st quarter of 2006".

That site just says their next launch is in early February; it doesn't say it's E*10.

E* has used just about every launch site available at some point:

• China: E*1
• French Guiana: E*2
• Cape Canaveral: E*3, 5, 6 & 7
• Baikonur Cosmodrome: E*4 & 8
• Sea Launch: E*9

With that list, I'd wait for the press release before saying for certain that Sea Launch is launching E*10.

The link you posted doesn't show the whole article if you're not a MarketWatch member, but here is the same release direct from E*. Though I read it before and didn't recall seeing that, it does indeed say Sea Launch will handle E*10. I stand corrected.
