Apple's patent win over HTC will be reviewed by U.S. Trade Agency

According to a report from Bloomberg, the ITC will re-examine an earlier decision that HTC infringed on two Apple patents. The six member commission has the power to either overturn or confirm the original decision. If it's upheld, this could lead to a ban on the sales of HTC's Android devices in the US.

HTC is allegedly infringing on patents involving data transmission and the identification of phone numbers in an email.

The commission now has until December 6 to make a decision.
