As a fan of their wireless routers, I hope this works out well for them and soon.

I thought this would be of more interest here than at P & N.

Buffalo actually stated that this does not change the status of availability.

"Buffalo is confident that the final decision will be favorable and that the injunction will be lifted. However, at the present time, Buffalo is unable to supply wireless LAN equipment compliant with IEEE 802.11a and 802.11g standards in the United States".
