The U.S.-based International Trade Commission is mulling a ban on imports of Research in Motion Inc.'s signature BlackBerry device because of patent complaints by Motorola Inc. and Eastman Kodak Co.
The ITC announced Friday it is investigating claims that Waterloo, Ont.-based RIM violated a number of Motorola patents in its wireless devices and corresponding software products.
Motorola has asked the ITC to execute cease and desist orders against RIM products in the U.S. while in investigation is underway.
The ITC does not have the power to impose financial penalties, but can order border and custom officials to ensure that products found to be in violation of trademark are denied entrance to the country.
