As we all know, today Verizon is holding a media event where it is widely expected to announce that it will begin offering the iPhone, marking the end of AT&T’s exclusive distribution for the device in the United States.

Of course, there’s always a chance that Verizon just wants to reveal more details on LTE, or talk about the company’s commitment to openness and Android… but according to the rumor mill, it’s time for Big Red to get some Apple magic.

The event is scheduled to kick off at Lincoln Center in New York City at 11:00 AM Eastern Time, or a little under 30 minutes from now.

Verizon does not appear to be providing live video or audio coverage of the event, and thus observers will have to rely primarily on text and photo updates coming out of the event.

It is a speculation / rumor (still) that Verizon is expected to introduce the long-rumored Verizon iPhone at their press conference today. No one really knows what will go down at this Media Event but we’re here to cover it and see where it goes.
