> Ian Goldberg and others argued some years ago that you need to have a display and keypad on the device, so you don't have to trust the computer not to steal keys from the users (his solution was a Palm Pilot, but a simple 2x16 LCD and some buttons will do.)

IBM has a product: http://domino.research.ibm.com/odis/odis.nsf/pages/solution.25.html  UBS was going to deploy it http://www.pcworld.com/article/189938/article.html .
