Broadcom Files Lawsuit Against Qualcomm
Broadband semiconductor maker Broadcom Corp. on Tuesday said it has filed a lawsuit against Qualcomm Inc., charging the wireless technology company with violating domestic antitrust laws.

QUALCOMM Responds to Broadcom's Latest Complaint
Broadcom's allegations regarding supposed monopolization by QUALCOMM of a so-called "WCDMA market" are likewise demonstrably false. With many companies selling commercial WCDMA chipsets, competition among WCDMA chipset suppliers is healthy and intense, and QUALCOMM has supplied only a small percentage of the WCDMA chipsets sold to date. The inability of Broadcom to attract customers for its WCDMA products, as admitted in Broadcom's complaint, is indicative of this highly competitive environment and not of any ostensible anticompetitive activity by QUALCOMM.
