Having the release earlier in the week also means there will probably 
be more people online to quickly respond to any issues that arise with 
the release. Then again, it also means its more likely more people will 
be exposed to any such issues as well. Weighing the two, I'd think 
former is preferable to the latter. (Not that there'll be any issues 
anyway :)
