Research In Motion Ltd. (RIMM) stock moved up 0.40 percent to $29.89 in the after-market trading. Eastman Kodak Co.'s (EK) lucrative patent fight with Apple and RIM has been delayed by the U.S. International Trade Organization. The decision, which was originally slated to be delivered Thursday, could have big consequences for Apple and RIM if ITC favors Kodak. Kodak sought, in its lawsuit filed in January 2010, to block smartphones of both the companies entering the U.S. It argued that their cameras used image previewing technology, which was patented by Kodak.

Apple Inc. (AAPL) stock moved up 0.17 percent to $331.80 in the after-market trading. If the U.S. International Trade Organization judge finds in favor of Eastman Kodak (EK) in the patent suit, it could mean Apple and RIM devices would be blocked for sale in the U.S., RBC Capital Markets said in a note to clients. Should the ITC rule in Kodak’s favor, we estimate the BlackBerry maker may settle for $450 million to $550 million and the iPhone maker may settle for $450 million to $550 million. This estimate is based on Kodak’s Chairman and CEO Antonio Perez’s statement Kodak may receive $1 billion in royalties from Apple and RIM, as well as upon prior settlements with Samsung for $550 million and LG for $414 million, RBC Capital's analyst Mike Abramsky said.
