Ooh, Qualcomm you been
naughty. You might remember that last year Qualcomm was
banned from selling various
3G chips that infringed on Broadcom's patents, but the big Q apparently believes that being in trouble is a fake idea, because it kept
right on doing it -- to the point where a judge today found the company in contempt for violating the injunction and ordered it to pay up gross profits from sales of its
QChat push-to-talk tech to Broadcom. The court gave Qualcom 30 days to figure out how much it owes -- Sprint's paid over $39M to use the tech since last December, so it's not going to be peanuts. Qualcomm says it'll immediately comply, but is planning on appealing the order, so we'll how this all goes down.
