A le settles 17-inch Studio Di lay cla action

A le has agreed to a settlement in the Cla Action Suit regarding allegedly defective inverter boards that caused problems with 17-inch Studio Di lays. Although A le won't admit any wrongdoing (as is usually the case in these kinds of settlements), it has agreed to settle the claim in order to avoid the exorbitant expe e of a trial. The lawsuit claimed that "the inverter board of the A le 17-inch LCD Studio Di lay was faulty, causing the gradient dimming of the top or bottom half of the screen of the Di lay and a power light to co tantly blink on and off in a short-short-long pattern to signal a problem."

Under the terms of the agreement, A le will provide cash refunds ranging from $75 - $400 to claimants who had their affected di lays repaired. The amount refunded will depend on when the repair was performed and whether it was an A le repair or a repair by a a third party. Only US residents are eligible for the settlement. Additional details, claim forms and a FAQ are available on the suit info site.

How many of you are covered by this settlement and plan to submit a claim?
