    looks interesting

    I suppose you could just skip the password too and use it like a car. What's even more fun are those thumbprint readers on pocketPCs. Physical keys are old technology!

    I also wonder how easy it would be too defeat. There's always some sort of hard reset for those who forget passwords or keys.

    Yes, I too wonder. I was reading the info on it, and their "security measures" seem trivial at best.

    It's another password, programmed into the key. It can be hacked. Of course, most people don't have anything on thier computers, and the computers themselves are not worth, spending days or even weeks on the code on the key, which, with modern technology, could be as big as several hundred megabytes.

    Thats why most people wouldn't be using it... duh? Cracking it in most ciscumstances would be just for the hell of it, but the key size of several megabytes? Not with our personal computers, a lot have problems with a prime number 4096 digits long, let alone 8192000, but I guess that would really count on the exncryption scheme used
