It was settled out of court, and their registration page was completely rewritten. Was it a frivolous suit? Don't know, don't care. It's also very possible that the "ADA militants" who actively looked for violations are no longer as active as they once were. But you know, I (and I suspect most people) don't want to deal with a lawsuit, however frivolous and/or unlikely it may be.
No I was not aware of it. My post was to simply state that currently, as the law stands, Title III has not been amended for websites. Saying that, of course a company is going to revamp their registration process in lieu of a law suit as the former is much cheaper than the later. I am willing to bet that the "settlement" was nothing more than OpenTable stating they would change the registration part of their site and probably pay for the lawyer fees that were incurred to bring action.

That's where [RFC] Contact Page comes in.
I don't believe that would satisfy the requirements of the law but not being a lawyer and there nothing in the law about web accessibility as it pertains to commercial endeavors, not completely sure.
