Thanks, Peter.

I am wondering if any Vox users have changed over to this, and if so, what happened with the Vox and its ability to access Google Play, for example, or Gmail. I seem to remember with the last update having to access my google account through the device's settings which gave it access on a global level, which the 'application specific password' doesn't seem to apply to. I guess I am wondering how Google would treat the Vox if one changed over to the 2 step verification. Would it be treated as a 'tablet' or a phone?

Well, I'll keep looking to see if I can find more information on this.

I see one can turn the 2 step verification off if you find you have difficulty accessing some things afterward.
