BlackBerry: banned in the USA?

You may have heard about these little email gadgets called CrackBerrys that

everyone in Washington, D.C. is addicted to. Anyway, it's probably best not to give them a try, since there's a good chance they might get banned in the USA. The story is that back in August a company called NTP won a patent lawsuit against Research In Motion, the company that makes the BlackBerry, requiring them to pay nearly $54 million in damages and (here's the kicker) granting an injunction that would stop them from selling, making, or servicing the gadgets here in the United States, something which would essentially bankrupt them. So RIM appealed to a Federal Circuit Court of Appeals court, which stayed the injunction pending a decision, and are trying to get NTP's patents overturned by Patent Office.
