Right, but as the price drops more people will be able to afford one? I would sure be willing to spend a few hundred on a CD-ROM writer (that's how much the readers cost now, right?) in order to make/destroy OTPs. (And by the time the price *does* go down that far, I should have the money to buy it, hopefully.) On checksums-- I wouldn't know how the devices work, but that looks like a task for a talented cypherpunks hardware hacker.
checksum might be solved by using multisession CD-ROMs. Cheaper hardware might be found in the mini-disc format or digital audio tapes??? /hawk
