What the Gansler announcement was about

Not on the Web site yet. Here's the email.

Attorney General Douglas F. Gansler today announced an agreement with all of the major United States wireless carriers as well as Asurion Protection Services, a provider of cell phone insurance protection policies to the customers of the carriers. Under the agreement, Asurion will more clearly disclose key terms of its insurance policies in the materials that it provides to the wireless carriers. AT&T Mobility, Sprint Nextel, T-Mobile USA and Verizon Wireless will ensure consumers are provided with the key terms when they enroll customers in the insurance plans administered by Asurion. Although the agreement applies solely to Maryland, it is expected that the carriers and Asurion will make similar changes in other states.
