Two-factor via SMS is for dumbphones. Facebook should support RFC 4226 to allow smartphone apps to generate codes without communicating with Facebook.

They should support RFC 4226, as google does, but they still need to support SMS with the size and diversity of their userbase. Google offers SMS as well.

How long before every facebook user has a device that can do RFC 4226? I hope soon, but kind of doubt it'll happen this decade.
