The BlackBerry Achievement Awards are presented to organizations that are doing business in new and innovative ways with BlackBerry products and services. The awards were classified into five categories: App of the Year, Putting Customers First, Mobile Innovation of the Year, Making the World a Better Place, and Entrepreneur of the Year.
Winner: DIRECTV -- As a large satellite TV provider in Latin America and the Caribbean, DIRECTV makes customer service for their five million customers a priority. Their app for BlackBerry smartphones allows their 4,000 technicians to manage an entire service call and work order process from their phones, and supports Bluetooth technology to validate and adjust satellite signal strength. The app is helping DIRECTV improve customer satisfaction, reduce paperwork and technical calls, as well as decrease return visits to customer homes.
Winner: e-Cycle LLC -- e-Cycle LLC has a simple, but meaningful mandate: offer enterprises a way to retire millions of mobile devices responsibly, by protecting data security, preserving the environment, and generating buyback revenue. As a recipient of e-Stewards certification, e-Cycle is on the frontline of ensuring that harmful, toxic chemicals from mobile devices are not sent to landfills but are instead recycled safely. Their buyback program reimburses costs for devices that can have more value in the market, which offsets the costs of a company upgrading to new devices.
Winner: Nobex Technologies Inc -- Many BlackBerry enthusiasts are familiar with Nobex Technologies' innovative mobile app that allows people to listen radio stations on the go and share the experience and chat with friends through BBM. Nobex Radio for BlackBerry 10 continues its inventiveness with a newly designed app. It adds podcast functionality that allows people to search and subscribe to thousands of podcasts, with notifications sent to the BlackBerry Hub when new episodes are available.

Then, when you want to disable the conditional import, go back to the "preprocessor defines" tab and remove the JDE_4_7_0 entry. That will make the compiler enter the #else clause. The BB plugin for eclipse does not detect the OS, it is all an artifact you should control.
EDIT:
You'll end with two sets of deliverables, one for 5.0+ and the other for 4.x. BBant tools allows you to perform the compilation process in one step, but the product of the compilation will be the same. As an alternative, you can:
*NOTE: I don't know why that facebook blackberry sdk is compiled for 5.0. Maybe the author just used the lower OS he had in his development machine, who knows. But without testing it I cannot state it is 4.5 compatible, just that the jar is 4.5 compilable.
Change the directive name to something more like JDE_4_7_0_OR_HIGHER, then go into your project's Blackberry_App_Descriptor.xml file and add JDE_4_7_0_OR_HIGHER to the "Preprocess Directives" list, and then make sure it is enabled whenever you compile the project with a JRE version that is 4.7 or higher (you can install multiple JREs and then select a specific one in the project options before compiling). Then your code will look like this:
