hey Artercy,
I could use that extra authenticator since some jerk keeps hacking my account no matter what I do

Ordered mine on 6/30….and still waiting. Not that I’m blaming BBB, wait yes I should blame you. You just had to let the entire Blizzard WoW community know about them.

I heard Canadians sleep with their doors unlocked.

Anyone interested in mailing me one? : D

I got mine last night as well. Stupid easy to use. Stupid easy to setup. And I sleep better knowing my purples are better protected from some hack.

One thing I noticed about this OTP (one-time password) device over others that I have used (like RSA’s SecurId), is that I was never prompted to enter sequential keys. This is often done the first few times (and every couple weeks there after) you use the device to account for real-time clock drift issues between the clock on my device and the clock on the back-end servers.

These devices (or the configuration of the back-end servers) must allow for a larger range of clock drift than those on the SecurIds.

Wow…that’s crazy. Blizzard actually sent me an extra one despite the fact I only ordered one. I ordered them on the 30th of June and got here a little while ago. Now I’m facing a dilemma as to what to do with the 2nd one…

Oops they sold out again it looks like.

Anyway I’m in the same boat as you BBB…still waiting on mine to be delivered from first round.
