Maybe I've missed an important turn in this thread, but it seems to me that the discussion was about encrypting phone conversations when users are "on the road". Wouldn't using a floppy disk or a pen drive with your own private key on an untrusted machine defy the whole purpose of keeping it private? Probably it can be helpful anyway in most situations, and is surely better than no encryption at all, but it seems to me that a good solution to the problem implies some kind of smart encryption device (why not on USB, rather than a smart card!); that should be enough to foil also man-in-the-middle attacks, if at least one endpoint is already trusted.
