QUALCOMM Incorporated (Nasdaq: QCOM), a leading developer and innovator of Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) and other advanced wireless technologies, reported that the Japan Fair Trade Commission (JFTC) has notified its Japanese subsidiary, QUALCOMM Japan, that the JFTC may investigate QUALCOMM's licensing and chip business practices in Japan.

Our business model of extensively licensing our technology has opened the 3G market to new players -- driving competition, growth and innovation -- and we have consistently offered the best, most advanced chipsets and software at competitive prices."
