Brilliant, thank you! Here's a screencap since I think it got taken down:

Players who own the FFXIV version 1.0 Collector’s Edition will receive the FFXIV: ARR Collector’s Edition in-game bonus items (Helm of Light, Baby Behemoth Minion, Behemoth Barding, and Coeurl Mount) for free. The in-game bonus items will be delivered via Moogle Letter when FFXIV: ARR launches.

Weird isn't it? They've already stated that your account can only be logged in on one system at a time.

Worst case scenario: *clicks* "You cannot do it. Even if you have bought two accounts, ARR will not let you run twice on the same machine."
Best case scenario: *clicks* "We have implemented a 'hot-switch' so that all of your characters can be active simultaneously and switch between them with the press of a button. In this way, you will be able to build your own party of eight characters to go adventuring with. In order to facilitate this, we have instituted a modified version of FFXII's Gambit system to run your characters with a set series of commands.

Hey, I can dream.
