Q: Qualcomm President and COO Richard Sulpizio has said you might use some of the $1.6
billion in cash and equivalents on the books to acquire GSM technology in order to build
dual-mode chipsets for both CDMA and GSM networks. Can you confirm this?
A: Yes, we?re looking around at possible acquisitions. We?ll work with someone who has GSM
rights. It could be a strategic relationship such as cross-licensing. We need to find a solution. A
strong enough acquisition is another way to go. We could use cash and stock. This is new path for
us -- we?ve never done acquisitions before.


GSM outfit is COMQUEST (not NOK)
