WPAZ Encryption?

I noted some listings of Linksys wireless routers and the new Zune HD say it can perform WPAZ encryption. What exactly is WPAZ? I know what WPA2 is, but have not heard of WPAZ and google is not being much help at the moment.

It might just be a typo for "WPA2", with the typo having been copied.

Unless these devices were (will be?) brought back in time from the future, I'd say someone in marketing screwed up on spelling the correct acronym.

That's amusing.

»www.shopwiki.com/_Linksys+-+Wire···-+WRV210

Looks like someone typoed, or misread while copying, the description of the Linksys WRV210. The rest of the lemmings just copied and pasted the text without bothering to proof it.

The mistake doesn't appear in the original description on the Linksys website. I wonder if Best Buy was the source of the mistake or if they copied and pasted from somewhere else...

Wow, that's a heck of a typo. Really kind of sad.

The Z looks like a 2, but c'mon manufacturers.
