[Equipment] Anyone heard from Phillips re the toxic foam issue?

Anyone heard from Phillips re the toxic foam issue?
Hi, just wondered if anyone has heard from Phillips after registering their machine as being part of the recall (I have 2 almost new dream stations)? I had no choice but to buy a new Resmed Airsense 10 a few weeks ago, as I figured this would take some time... on a bright note, after being diagnosed 2 years ago with severe sleep apnea (over 60 AIH), with my Phillips dream machine it got down to 2-3 AHI... with the Resmed its now down to 0.2 - 0.5 consistently each night. I realise anything under 5 is considered 'normal' so my dream station was doing its job, but I was surprised that the Resmed got it down to well under 1 each night. Both machines has identical start pressures (10) and on auto mode, and both seemed to average about 12-13 of pressure during the night. I was told Resmed has a more aggressive algorithm, is this the reason?
