My laptop has a built in smart card reader, and my desktop has a USB one plugged in with a hardware pin-pad.

The cryptostick does look cool. I've come across it before. I like the smart card because I can just pop it in my wallet like a credit card.

You can also get keyboards with built in smart card readers, where the numeric keypad has a mode to operate as a hardware pin pad (rather than sending the keypresses to the computer) I'm thinking of getting one of these at some point.
