Jan, since this is not sci.crypt I am not going into details here (and
might bore the rest), but please check the One-Time-Pad (or Vernam
cipher) FAQ to see why it is the only currently known unconditionally

sounds like fact since it IS a fact :)
OTP FAQ: http://pubweb.nfr.net/~mjr/pubs/otpfaq/
OTP Schematics: http://www.seas.gwu.edu/~csci229/ch2_pfleeger/sld039.htm
And finally: http://www.cacr.math.uwaterloo.ca/hac/about/chap6.pdf,
which is chapter 6 of the amazing book "Handbook of Applied
Cryptography".
