Google’s CEO Eric Schmidt and Verizon Wireless CEO Lowell McAdam will be there, which indicates that these two companies have something very significant to announce. As Verizon has yet to release devices powered by Google’s Android, CNET thinks that Google and Verizon may hook up to announce Android-powered phones. The adoption of Android by Verizon will be painful for Microsoft and RIM, since the operator is currently leaning on these suppliers for powering its devices.

Update: Verizon and Google just announced that Verizon is the third US carrier to commit to Android in just one year.
