Re: USB key form-factor smart-card readers with pinpads?

Ignoring the fact that if the machine you are using for crypto operations is compromised, you have lost (at least for the operations conducted while it is compromised), a smartcard without a PIN pad may compromise your pin (and allow arbitrary operations while the smartcard is protected) but still
