Amazing but true...



Quote:

"Apple should be breathing a sigh of relief right now that they didn't push to include third-generation (3G) cellular data networking technology in the iPhone. A highly unusual United States International Trade Commission (ITC) ruling today prevents the importation of any 3G phone not currently being imported that use silicon chips from Qualcomm. Bloomberg News confirmed that the iPhone doesn't use any Qualcomm chips."



And more....



Quote:

With new Qualcomm-based 3G phones banned, Apple may get the last laugh.



The decision goes into effect immediately, and Qualcomm, Verizon, and others are already attempting to have the ruling put in abeyence by a federal court; the decision may be appealed in court. The ruling becomes final within 60 days unless overturned by the U.S. president; Pres. Bush also delegated this right in 2005 to the U.S. Trade Representative.
