(@zerohedge) June 25, 2012 Update: A report from Bloomberg Businessweek confirmed and provided some clarification. As we reported in April, the ITC will have to review Judge Pender's previous ruling that Apple infringed on one Motorola patent related to industry standard 3G and wireless technologies. The date for that hearing is now scheduled for August 24 and could result on a block of iOS devices from Asia to the US:
The U.S. International Trade Commission said it will review ITC Judge Thomas Pender's findings that Apple was violating one of four Motorola Mobility patents. The commission is scheduled to issue a final decision on Aug. 24, and has the power to block devices made in Asia from entering the U.S.
According to several tweets from financial analyst @zerohedge, Google is apparently attempting to block shipments of the iPhone and iPad in the U.S. related to 3G patents. We don't have any more information at the moment, but we'll keep you updated as the story unfolds...
