iPad and iPhone ban vetoed by the Trade Representitive

During the patent battle that Apple and Samsung have been locked in for years, it was ruled that the older models of iPads and iPhones infringed on Samsung's wireless technology patents. After the ruling, those models of iPads and iPhones were banned from sale. However, President Obama's Trade Representative vetoed the decision on the grounds that it damaged competition. The President has 60 days to veto the new decision; if he does not, the old phones can be sold again in 60 days.
