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."

Any Okay. I don't understand why Motorola cares. MOTOROLA IS A COMPLETELY different company than microsoft. I hope they go bankrupt.
No they arent LOL
Microsoft makes technology/ software so does Motorola...
They both make mobile phones...
They are completely alike they are also both massive companys due to Google now owning Motorola.
I hope the Xbox gets does get banned in the US, im an xbox person but i hate Microsoft.

ZezmaaDazzleAgonycrazyxxsniperxx44FPS_Ryan Why not just order one that has a different HD capacity. Herp Derp
You are not very bright. The xbox only comes in 4GB and 250GB so you can't buy a different sized HD. Herp Derp
Apparently, you are not very bright. The Xbox360 Slim now features a 320GB harddrive, my limited edition Mw3 edition has one, and they said they'll be coming out with that size harddrive within a year. So learn some facts about the harddrives for the xbox before you go after someone
actually only limited edition slims only come in 320 gb the others come in 250gb and 4 gb
http://www.amazon.com/Xbox-360-320GB-Hard-Drive/dp/B005PSTV2K# Learn your facts bud, not trying to argue but here's your evidence that they are now selling 320 GB harddrives for ALL slims. Case closed.

TheRoyalWedding-Imagine- Well, i'm still confused on what happened between Motorola and Microsoft.. Apparently this isn't good. Does it mean all xbox consoles will be banned or just some types of them?
I agree I don't know what's going on with Motorola
None are being banned, just the import and I assume the sale of 4 and 250GB slims.
