One-Time Password Devices

"Isn't there an authentication device that can be shared among as many household users and online sites as desired, without having to rely on a third-party authorization service, and without requiring web site operators to know about one another?"

Why not use something people carry to, like a mobile phone - to become the multi-use "token" for authentication. A number of people will want to gain access to banking service over computer/laptops that are not necessarily the ones used everyday.

A multi-use mobile token would go a long way to avoid carrying multiple token devices and be independent of specific computers.

For the Banks, this is an easier model to deploy than manging all those hardware tokens.
