Hey Southwest: what would you want done if you were in my situation? Did you "do the right thing"?

Southwest first said they'd accommodate us (in emails and different calls I made)... today they said everybody traveling to Hawaii after May 3rd who booked through Southwest is SOL... go buy a ticket elsewhere.
Hawaii travel is the only reason I've been accumulating Rapid Rewards on Southwest.
I've canceled my Southwest visa card.
Given their flip-flop in "accommodating us", I hope there's a class action suite... as I'd like to cover my losses on this.
Does anybody know of a lawyer starting any class action suits over this?
Thanks,
Chris

I switched from Delta for the same reasons many have listed above: the egalitarian seat assignment.
My business trips have become longer in duration and shorter in distance. When I lost Delta Medallion status, it was like getting dropped by your girlfriend: no more special privileges, just friends (and you can sit in the back with the rest of the "just friends").
My company forces me to use American Express for an online booking travel agent, unless I can save >$100 elsewhere. The online booking doesn't get the Southwest fares I can get from "Ding!" and such... Delta is usually cheaper... so I wait for the "Ding!" fares and buy then. Is this going to change?
This morning I went to check in, and have an "A", but it also says "Position 34". I don't know "Position 34"... can somebody explain it to me?
Also, I was saving points for some Hawaii tickets for next May/June. Are these effected?
