Sharp Banned from the USA

Thursday June 25, 2009
Last year I blogged about a Sharp and Samsung legal battle over LCD patents, so it's prudent to provide an update on what has turned out to be a very sad week.

It hasn't reached Two Live Crew 'Banned in the USA.' status yet, but the U.S. International Trade Commission has banned Sharp products from being imported into the USA, according to a Twitter-like report from EngadgetHD. This ban includes the beloved Aquos line of LCD TVs.

For more information on this developing story, I recommend reading a full-length report published by the LA Times.
