Though placed on their web site over a month ago, Verizon has finally re-posted their settlement terms for the Motorola V710 class action suit. The settlement does offer a refund of the purchase price of the device and all Verizon accessories, as well as a refund of any early termination fees for people who left Verizon due to the hindered Bluetooth in the V710.
