[img_assist|nid=36|title=Verizon One|desc=|link=none|align=right|width=191|height=152]Verizon has partnered with Open Peak to develop the Verizon One Desktop Command Center, an all-in-one voice, video and data center for the home. The feature list is impressive, including dual mode VoIP/PSTN handsets (up to five), Wi-Fi connectivity, streaming audio and video, and a 7” color touchscreen.
