I read that a technical service bulletin has been issued by Acura. It states that owners with the vibration problem will have their tires replaced, apparently with new Bridgestone EL42 tires, that do not exhibit this problem.

Has anyone else heard anything?

Heard the same thing. Only additional items I heard were that
only those that had lodged a complaint would get new tires and
that the tires would start to arrive in March.

I've already replaced the terrible Bridgestone EL42 tires that
came with mine -- at my own expense -- for Michelin Pilot Sport
A/S tires. Although mine had no vibration issues, they were
awful in the snow and lousy in the rain. The Michelins are
wonderful under all conditions.
