CES Keynote by Verizon CEO Stokes Speculation Regarding iPhone Announcement
The Consumer Electronics Association today announced that Verizon CEO Ivan Seidenberg will be making the opening keynote speech at CES 2011, the major consumer electronics expo held each January in Las Vegas. Seidenberg's keynote speech will be held on the morning of January 6th, 2011.

But we are making note of this development on Page 2 as it may be of interest to a number of our readers.
