On September 2, 2005, the Superior Court of California in Los Angeles issued an Order preliminarily approving the settlement of this class action. Verizon Wireless' site can help Motorola V710 owners obtain information about the proposed settlement and also help them determine whether they are a member of the settlement class who qualifies for benefits in this case. 
The Plaintiffs claim that Verizon Wireless did not accurately disclose that certain Bluetooth features were not supported by the Motorola V710 handset available with Verizon Wireless cellular service. Verizon Wireless contends that its marketing materials were not deceptive and accurately informed customers of the Bluetooth profiles available for the Motorola V710 cellular handset available with Verizon Wireless service.
Based on the information available to them, the attorneys for the class concluded that the proposed settlement is fair, reasonable, and adequate, and that it serves the best interests of class members. The Court has preliminarily approved the settlement.
