Not all Verizon customers are experiencing the loss of data connectivity, and those who are report varying loss of service. In my home office in Houston, two iPhones never lost 3G connectivity while two LTE phones have no 3G or 4G coverage. Another LTE phone has been able to get to the slow Verizon 1X network sporadically, but not the 3G/4G networks.
Update: Verizon sent me this statement about the outage:
Verizon Wireless 4G LTE service is returning to normal this morning, after company engineers worked to resolve an issue with the 4G network during the early morning hours today. Throughout this time, 4G LTE customers were able to make voice calls and send and receive text messages. The 3G data network operated normally.
