People who lived through the Second World War, like my grandparents, had a very different view of money than those of us who grew up in the Information Age. Many of us still remember being told how foolish it is to keep one's life savings under a bed mattress, because the banks were known as trusted entities that will always do a better job of looking after your money. Even my grandparents, albeit reluctantly, came to realize that putting trust in financial institutions was the only way to go.

1) Tokens are very expensive. Who is going to pay for it? Answer - sooner or later, the customer.
2) There are programs, Cain and Able for example, that can crack a token code.
3) Someone can still fall for a Phish scam and be fooled into giving the pin and numbers on their token.
The plain and simple fact is that any system that requires someone to type in a password/pin/code can be broken into.
