Their problem with the German ID was that cheap readers did not have a keypad, so you'd have to enter your PIN on the PC, which could be infected with a trojan.
It's sad that this myth that "eID is insecure" has stuck around, because it's just not true. Their problems have all been with auxiliary devices or software, not the eID itself.
