Cal-Comp Reveals Design of Low-power Mobile Phone Featuring a mirasol Display

Barcelona, Spain (ots/PRNewswire) -

- Handset Geared to Deliver Energy-efficient Display Technology
in 2009 -

Cal-Comp Electronics, a unit of Taiwan's Kinpo Electronics, and
Qualcomm MEMS Technologies Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of
Qualcomm Incorporated (Nasdaq: QCOM), today announced design
specifications of the newly revealed Cal-Comp iT-810 handset
featuring Qualcomm's mirasol(TM) display. The iT-810 handset will be
showcased at GSMA Mobile World Congress 2009 in Booth B53, Hall 8.

The Cal-Comp iT-810 handset is a lightweight (74g), candy-bar
style mobile phone that incorporates a 1.2-inch bichrome mirasol
display with a resolution of 130 ppi (128 x 96 pixels). The iT-810
stands apart from similar handset designs by consuming less power,
thereby enabling extended usage between charges. The iT-810 will
provide Cal-Comp customers with a dynamic handset with which they can
access contact information, send text messages, make phone book
entries, and view time and date across a broad range of lighting
environments, including direct sunlight.

"The Cal-Comp iT-810 featuring a mirasol display is designed to
be an affordable handset coupled with one of the most innovative
display technologies on the market," said Peter Pan, vice president
of the wireless and telecommunications business unit of Cal-Comp
Electronics. "The mobile phone continues to serve as a primary
communications tool in emerging markets, and we are confident that
our customers will quickly recognize the benefits of the low power
consumption and enhanced readability afforded by mirasol display
technology."

"The inclusion of mirasol displays in the iT-810 is an exciting
opportunity for us," said Jim Cathey, vice president of business
development for Qualcomm MEMS Technologies. "This collaboration with
Cal-Comp Electronics further illustrates the growing global adoption
of mirasol displays. We look forward to expanding the customer base
for products that incorporate mirasol displays through the delivery
of handsets such as the iT-810."

Based on a reflective technology called interferometric
modulation (IMOD), mirasol displays harness ambient light and require
no backlighting, thereby consuming significantly less power than
standard display technologies.

About Qualcomm MEMS Technologies

Qualcomm MEMS Technologies Inc. has developed the industry's
first direct view MEMS display for mobile devices - a true
technological innovation that offers low power consumption and superb
viewing quality in a wide range of environmental conditions,
including bright sunlight. The display works by reflecting light so
that specific wavelengths interfere with each other to create color.
The phenomenon that makes a butterfly's wings shimmer is the same
principle applied in Qualcomm's mirasol displays. Using advanced MEMS
technologies, mirasol displays support Qualcomm's overall innovation
strategy of increasing the capability of mobile devices while
minimizing power consumption. Qualcomm MEMS Technologies Inc. is
headquartered in San Diego, Calif., with offices in San Jose, Calif.,
Taoyuan, Taiwan and Hsinchu, Taiwan.

Qualcomm Incorporated (Nasdaq: QCOM) is a leader in developing
and delivering innovative digital wireless communications products
and services based on CDMA and other advanced technologies.
