HSBC new security card

Whilst other countries have been offering this secure key forbe/card for sometime now for Internet Banking it seems the UK is somewhat lagging in offering this extra level of security. It is 2011 after all, and if other "less developed" countries can offer this service, I don't see why the UK is lagging. In many asian countries, you go and open a HSBC advance account and the same day they hand over the security forbe and get you set up on it. Now, UK HSBC customers have to wait another 2-3 months to start using the UK version: 'Secure Key' far bigger and ugglier than the one I was given in Taiwan.
The information on the website is very vague as well: http://www.hsbc.co.uk/1/2/security-centre/secure-key?HBEU_dyn_lnk=SecurityCentre_Overview_BannerSlotA_LearnMore_Button

Here's the one I got from Taiwan HSBC:


And the one they plan on offering in the UK:

By and large im pretty indifferent to HSBC, they're no better or worse than most high street banks these days, but I can't say Ive been too impressed with HSBCs UK operations since being back in the UK, and their delay in providing this vital security service to UK customers. Rant over, but if you too have some vented frustrations against this here seems a suitable outlet: http://fuckyouhsbc.com/
