Verizon Wireless, the nation's largest wireless provider and a leader in mobile data, now offers Lord of the Rings fans wireless communities where they can chat and brush up on trivia around "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers," the second movie in the trilogy.

Verizon Wireless customers can choose from among a wide variety of communities to quench their The Lord of the Rings appetite, including:
