Exclusive Unpublished Material

As with any project, much of the content and background information does not make it into the final product. When researching and developing The Qualcomm Equation, it was very obvious that there was far more "story" to Qualcomm and the last 20 years in the wireless industry than could be contained in a single book. This area is set up as a holding place for much of the material that did not make it to print.

Back of the Envelope
The proverbial "cocktail napkin" sketch that is the genesis of many revolutionary ideas happened with Qualcomm's spread spectrum technology as well. Only this time, it was a pencil sketch on an envelope. And this time, it wasn't just an MIT-trained engineer doodling.

Exclusive Interviews
Check out excerpts from interviews with Qualcomm's founders, partners and staunch competitors.
