Apple & RIM can avert the ban by opening a plant there or by searching a partner that is allowed to market its goods. Rumor is that RIM is searching for a partner.

In the beginning of the 2011, Argentina imposed a hefty 20.48% tax on foreign-made electronic goods, apart from the usual 21% tax that is levied on the electronic items. In the month of March, they revived the automatic import license, which pushed RIM & Apple to wait for approximately three months for Customs Authority approval for every new gizmo.
