FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

INTERDIGITAL ANNOUNCES FINANCIAL GUIDANCE
FOR FOURTH QUARTER 2008

KING OF PRUSSIA, PA — December 2, 2008 — InterDigital, Inc. (NASDAQ: IDCC) today announced financial guidance for fourth quarter 2008.  InterDigital^® expects fourth quarter 2008 revenue to be in the range of approximately $57.0 million to $60.0 million, including $7.0 million of non-recurring revenue primarily associated with a non-refundable prepayment, made in a prior period, by a licensee who has exited the handset business. This range does not include any potential impact from the recently announced resolution with Samsung or any new agreements during fourth quarter 2008.

“Fourth quarter 2008 reflects the positive traction seen by one of our technology solutions customers for its 3G IC offering, partly offsetting a decline in licensing revenues due to the softening market in Japan,” commented Scott McQuilkin, InterDigital’s Chief Financial Officer.
