3.2 PTR Patch Notes Updated - July 20th, 2009

The 3.2 PTR patch notes were updated on the official PTR forum; below are the changes. Anything crossed out has been removed from the patch notes. What's interesting is the removal of the quest tracking on the map (aka the built-in QuestHelper). Does this mean the feature has been scrapped, or that it's been delayed so 3.2 can release soon?

I tried to download the Mobile Authenticator from their site, and my phone is on the list and i get a link sent to my phone but when connecting I get a responce that says: Your phone is not compatible with this application.

Then why is it on their list??

Has anyone tried getting it on a Sony Ericsson W810i?

I'm more likely to lose my phone than the current authenticator.

However, the authenticator is more likely to run out of battery power than my phone....


Ugh, dilemma.
The main issue though, my phone can't run / install apps.
