Qualcomm Incorporated (Nasdaq: QCOM), a leading developer and

at Mobile World Congress 2008 announced a family of three new
industry-leading chipset solutions designed to power the next

device manufacturers. The first commercial devices are sampling now
and are expected to begin launching this year.
"Qualcomm is quickly moving a step beyond cell phones and gaining

positioned to accelerate the evolution of personal navigation and
entertainment gadgets."
    The QST1000 chipset includes:
    -- An integrated ARM11(TM) applications processor running at 528 MHz with
       support for third-party operating systems (Windows Mobile, Win CE and
       Linux)
    -- A comprehensive range of popular audio and video codecs
    -- Rich multimedia features, including camera, video playback at up to
       VGA resolution, and TV-out
    -- Seventh-generation gpsOne(R) engine with support for Standalone-GPS
       and Assisted-GPS modes, as well as gpsOneXTRA Assistance(TM)
       technology delivering enhanced Standalone-GPS performance
    -- Support for Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and FM radio
    -- 65 nanometer process technology for enhanced battery life and bill-of-

wireless WAN connectivity for voice calls and data capabilities. The
QST1105 also has a hardware-accelerated 2D/3D graphics core capable
of performing up to 2.8 million triangles per second for compelling
user interfaces and gaming applications. All three chipsets interface
with Qualcomm's Universal Broadcast Modem(TM) (UBM(TM)) solution for
MediaFLO(TM), DVB-H and ISDB-T mobile broadcast TV support. The three
chipsets are pin-compatible and utilize a common base of software,
offering device manufacturers significant flexibility and highly
