Verizon Wireless is finally going to clue people in to what its "Any Device, Any App" initiative actually involves. Its Open Development Device Conference, set for March 19-20 in New York City, will feature the debut - with much fanfare we suspect - of version 1.0 of the tech specs for wireless devices that will work with its so-called network-only service option.

According to Anthony Lewis, VP of the company's Open Development initiative, "Version 1.0 will provide the roadmap for wireless device visionaries and tinkerers, as well as existing device makers, to create consumer products not offered directly by the company" but can still run on the Verizon Wireless network.

For interested folks who can't make it to New York for the conference, Verizon Wireless will webcast the entire event. Details are available here.
