Net income (GAAP) was $327 million, or $.60 per share (diluted).


"Broadcom continues to execute exceptionally well with record revenue and earnings in the third quarter of 2010. I am particularly pleased that we had record sales in each of our segments and reached our GAAP product operating margin model of 15% - 17%. These achievements are due to solid growth in our wired and wireless communication businesses, powerfully engineered products and Broadcom's continued commitment to financial discipline," said Scott A.
