I think he meant: "do they work (once) after an indefinite period of time", rather than do they work repeatedly.

And now they developed a really useful security feature, something so many players wanted so bad for years.

A+

Will pay a lot of rake in the future.

I'm from the US and testing it as well I would guess as others.
So I'm going to say... yes?

Wrong, Dongles can be easily cracked... This is much much tougher to crack.

If it were a USB dongle and you had a trojan, people could still just open the client on your PC, remotely.

you don't need to photoshop out the numbers, LOL. The whole point of the token is that key loggers can not determine the next number simply by having observed the previous numbers.

It is cool that PokerStars is using these now

Which makes me
think -- should each sheet of one-time passwords require 'activation'?
Include an extra code on the sheet at the bottom. Before any of the
passwords work, you have to log in with your secure ID and 'activate' the
sheet of codes to confirm that they made it to your control.

I suspect this is just a first step as these Tokens need to be married to a second layer of protection for the ultimate defense of $100k+ players.

I agree, a token alone isn't enough. They should implement a system where you choose a "password" and you have to enter it everytime you want to access your account, like microsoft did with hotmail.

same ID's used by Visa/Mastercard employees to access sensitive information on the web. I know cause I had one when I worked at a company called First Data, who used to own Western Union. Just though I'd add that tidbit.

have had mine for a few weeks now. works great and actually made me log in and play on Stars in the course of testing it out, lol.

fwiw the retail price of these things is in the $60 range, so I'd expect the FPP store to have them at whatever the conversion rate is.
