Verizon has invited members of the media to an event next Tuesday, Jan. 11, in New York City, fueling rumors of an impending iPhone announcement, reports “AppleInsider” (http://www.appleinsider.com).
On Friday, Verizon sent out formal invitations to members of the press for an event to be held at the Lincoln Center. The invitation says event will feature Verizon Wireless president Lowell McAdam, but no other details were provided.
Of course, as the gang at “AppleInsider” notes, Apple normally holds events to introduce new products at its own corporate headquarters in Cupertino, CA. If next week’s event is for the much-anticipated Verizon-compatible CDMA iPhone, it would be unique for Verizon to make the announcement instead of Apple CEO Executive Steve Jobs, they note.
