Details

For reasons that are not yet clear, "Send Tab" always gives me the option to send my tab to the device I'm sending the tab from (as well as real other devices). What seems to be happening is we're fetching two devices from the database (the two you'd expect), but then our notion of "the guid of this device" doesn't match either of them, so we end up incorrectly displaying both to the user. Whoops.
It turns out that each time you delete/re-add your Sync account a new ClientRecord is created with a new GUID, thus seeming to duplicate your device. Since I'd recently done exactly this, it looks like what I'm reporting above is really an instance of that already-known problem (Bug 963446, Bug 977161, etc.)
