Ok fellas i have been wondering one thing for quite some time and i need serious help. I have no experience with multiple game copies on one acc or any collectors edition.
This is my situation: i have preordered collectors edition from 2 sources, but its not yet confirmed, so im as well buying normal version on release in stone shop.
The questions are -
1) if i start playing my normal version, and my CE arrives lets say 2 weeks later, do i get 2 seperate instalations or will the CE box contain "normal" version and one "promo upgrade key"?
2) can both versions be ínstaled on one accout or do i need to create second account?
3) if so, can it be played simultaneously? either on 1 PC or 2 different PC but from one account? (still got 2 unique keys)
4) or it simply wont allow me to add another unique diablo key to my acc?
Somebody with multiple copies of WoW/SC / collector versions experience PLS HELP

1) If you install your SE (standard edition) on your account, and then get the CE, there isn't a separate install, it's just a CE key.
2) You can only have 1 install on your account, and it's either the SE or the CE. So to install the CE would override your SE.
3) You will not be able to play more than 1 Diablo account per Bnet account.
4) Like I said above you can add the new CE key to your account, but it replaces the SE key on your account.
Ok, so from what i understood CE contains standard version key AND CE upgrade key hidden on some scrap-able ticket? That means i can instal and play SE right after release, then wait for CE to arrive, use only the promo key and ill have SE key from former CE left?
OR
I instal SE on 15th, get my grabby hands on CE (hopefuly) 2 weeks later, override my SE instalation with CE key, making my original SE useless and not working unless i contact support and ask for another SE key?

The key provided in the CE is that special key that unlocks those special features and what not. So once you over ride your SE you basically upgraded it to the CE and your SE is useless unless you contact support like you said.
Ok thx you all for replies and help (without trolls! woot!), now i just need to hope for best - and that means ill get CE in the end (pre-ordered from 6 stores, 3 already told me NO, other 3 no news) and when i do, support will not dismiss my normal key request due to "not supported country" :/
