Verizon Wireless has announced that it plans to launch a high-speed wireless service that will reach 110 million people in 38 markets. The company will unveil six mobile devices, including smartphones and tablets, that will work on this network in January.

“We’ll reach more than one third of all Americans where they live and work … the day that we flip the switch on this network,” said Verizon Communications Inc Chief Operating Officer Lowell McAdam.

McAdam also noted that the network could carry the iPhone: “I expect at some point in time our business interests are going to align and I think things like LTE are another great reason why (Apple) would want to have a device like that or a tablet on this kind of a network, so I fully expect it,” said McAdam.
