Online banking card reader

Quite cool but awkward this.

Just got a chip and pin card reader thing (looks like a small calculator) from Nationwide. The idea is that for certain transactions online and on internet banking, you have to put you card in the reader, which generates a code. This is then used to validate the transaction.

First I've heard of this and it'll be a pain if I'm not at home and want to move money around, but at least it's extra protection.
