Engadget is reporting that Verizon will launch its Hub home networking product on Feb. 1 in Verizon stores.

The Hub will aim to provide all household communications needs in one device, complete with touchscreen and VoIP functionality, and integration with Verizon wireless handsets. The Hub will be IP-centric and will support video and audio recording for family messaging, as well as a calendar and a "digital corkboard" organizational tool.

It also will not require subscription to Verizon's FiOS offering, as was initially rumored. Verizon has not yet set a price for the device.
