But What will happen to Intel's modem business? I would love to see some competition to Qualcomm. Broadcom have disbanded their 4G Modem and WiFi business as well, leaving the market with very little choices.

In the article it mentions Intel is investing in 5G wireless, so the modem team will have plenty of work.

It's rumor that Apple is using Intel modem chip for iPhone 7.
