> Steve Gibson talks about those quite a bit.  Is there a way to use them for external things, like your bank?

If the bank supports them, yes.

they don't store passwords, they create one time use incremental tokens...

They aren't uber-high level freaky James Bond / Bruce Schnier secure..
but they are an effective and very very well done level
with a good price point for devices and reasonable implementation pain.

That makes them desirable and useful as the 2nd factor.. (or third.. or.. )
Useful and used makes them better than uber-quantum secure and hard to 
implement and therefor not used.
