I know this will play merry hell with the 3d printer and mechanical keyboard scene. Innumerable hardware will die from this takeover.

@urmel Qualcoomm is a company that is extremely happy to sue everyone. Wherever they suspect the IP (they just bought) is in use will get an invoice.

@masek Broadcom is not the same company as Qualcomm. You tagged Broadcom in your initial post. So I was expecting something connected to them.
