To answer the second question, I don't believe a higher value of the yuan will "cripple" their exports. However, it will likely not improve their export position.
You can go here for historical trade balance figures between the US and China. http://www.census.gov/foreign-trade/balance/c5700.html
Just briefly, the imbalance (on our side) was $-232.5 billion in 2006, $-256.2 billion in 2007, $-266.3 billion in 2008, and $-20.5 billion in January of 2009. But you can see the month-by-month data on that website.

• In 2009, Chinese imports and exports are down about 20 percent from 2008. Increased unemployment and plant closures have resulted.
