ITC delays Microsoft Xbox 360 US import ban decision
David Shaw, a judge for the ITC, had previously ruled in April that the Xbox 360 had infringed on four patents owned by Motorola regarding the use of H.264 video encoding. In May, Judge Shaw recommended that the ITC place a ban on importing the 4 GB and 250 GB versions of the Xbox 360 S consoles into the US as a consequence of the console violating Motorola's patents.
The story gives no reasons while the full ITC board would send the case back to Judge Shaw. The board was previously expected to make a final decision on the Xbox 360 patent case in August. Earlier this month, a number of companies, including Apple, Cisco, HP, Nokia, Intel and Activision, wrote letters to the ITC requesting the organization not ban the Xbox 360 from being imported to the US.
US House of Representatives member Darrell Issa (R-CA) also wrote his own letter to the ITC supporting Microsoft, saying, "An exclusion order would eliminate the only U.S. based videogame console from a market."

It's absolutely ridiculous that they are trying to do this.
Motorola can just suck it up, ask for some cash or something don't try and ban the xbox.
I don't care if this goes through or not, not buying motorola stuff anymore.
Just for their patheticness.
