San Diego (ots/PRNewswire) -

- Acquisition of Qualphone Inc. Helps Accelerate Migration of
3G in European and Other Major Markets -

QUALCOMM Incorporated (Nasdaq: QCOM), a leading developer and
innovator of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) and other advanced
wireless technologies, today announced that it will acquire San
Diego-based Qualphone Inc., a leading provider of IP-based Multimedia
Subsystems (IMS) embedded client software solutions for mobile
devices and interoperability testing (IOT) services. The acquisition
of Qualphone's products and resources will help QUALCOMM further
accelerate the delivery of multimedia-capable, feature-rich 3G
solutions on top of the emerging IMS and Multi Media Domain (MMD)
architectures to WCDMA/UMTS and CDMA2000(R) markets. Completion of
the acquisition is expected later this month.

Qualphone's IMS client platform provides mobile operators with a
technical and commercial framework for offering services using a wide
range of integrated and interactive media, voice, text, picture and
video technologies. Qualphone's 3G/IP multimedia embedded client
framework can be tailored to the specific requirements of individual
operators and handset manufacturers, and its end-to-end IOT services
help reduce time to market. QUALCOMM's acquisition of Qualphone
enhances the Company's continuing global efforts to provide a highly
efficient launch path for new 3G products and services.

"QUALCOMM is strongly committed to enabling 3G wireless for
worldwide markets, and this acquisition of Qualphone is another
instance of our progress in this direction," said Dr. Sanjay K. Jha,
president of QUALCOMM CDMA Technologies. "We look forward to
leveraging Qualphone's test service, IMS technology and software
development resources to accelerate the delivery of attractive and
more feature-rich devices to subscribers in European and other
markets."

"This acquisition is the logical outcome of Qualphone's and
QUALCOMM's common goal of simplifying the deployment of 3G services
around the world," said Isaac Eteminan, president and CEO of
Qualphone Inc. "We look forward to uniting our efforts in helping
subscribers more quickly benefit from the new wireless capabilities
of 3G technology."

Headquartered in San Diego, Calif., Qualphone's product and
service portfolio includes mobile client framework software,
IMS-based client applications and handset IOT services.
