I actually have one....in a Java Ring from a JavaOne conference way back. Be 
a great user identification/authentication device.

Ouch, that's the oldest (and most buggy) version of the firmware 
available. Newer ones are more capable and have fewer bugs in the 
firmware. (Also different bugs of course)
And note, the application needs to be translated using the correct version 
of the firmware, there is no such thing as 'write once, deploy on all Java 
iButtons'.

Jac

I thought these things were 'certified' which is why they are so expensive

This only proves the value of certifications. They're all about testing
and test sets. Test too little and bugs may slip though, test too much and
no product will comply.

Indeed, I think that's what they were supposed to be fore (I remember that
JavaOne, though I didn't get to go)!
however I don't know how often a system like Outpost is going to have to
know an individual... however that same technology could be used to identify
the "black box" or "node" is you like, and provide the public and secret
keys for encrypting.
