Possible to link pre-order items to existing PC accounts?

Apologies in advance if this question has been asked before.. I searched through the forums but mainly saw questions regarding incompatibility between Standard 1.0 and Collectors Edition 2.0.

Has it been confirmed that the pre-order bonus code can be used with existing 1.0 PC accounts, or is it going to be the same situation as the Collectors' code, where we will need to buy the PS3 version? I know that the pre-order bonuses are basically pointless vanity items, but I NEED that moogle hat :)

Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

When registering the pre-order bonus code you will be able to select which FFXIV service account the bonus is applied to.
