PayPal.com has recently released a device which generates a six digit code every 30 seconds. PayPal claims that all internet hackers will never be able to hack any accounts. But is it worth it?

    Very informative. I got one for free after requesting it, but have been going back and forth on whether to use it. Sounds simple, but I'm still holding back. I'll wait for more feedback. Thanks again!

    I've had a biz account since 97 - and they didn't send me one. I thought this article was about a digital key. Very informative! Though I don't know I want one, I'd lose it!

    Mine gave out within 2 weeks of receiving it. I didn't even get to use it much. And then the page that's used to bypass the "security key" was buggy, and I could barely gain access to my account.

    I got one, sometimes it's a pain b/c I don't have the code generator with me or don't feel like getting it out. But in general, it's pretty cool.
