Apple seeks to stop August 5th ban on Apple iPhone 4 and Apple iPad 2

Believe it or not, the Apple iPhone 4 and the GSM flavored version of the Apple iPad 2 are both less than a month away from being banned in the U.S. by the ITC. Apple is seeking to halt the ban, which goes into effect on August 5th following a 60 day review period by the President of the United States. The presidential evaluation period starting keeping track of down on July 4th, when the ITC originally enforced the order, and while other The apple company gadgets were part of the transfer ban, only the The apple company iPhone 4 and the The apple company iPad 2 (GSM) are still being sold by The apple company. The chief executive is not predicted to intervene in the case.
