Failures of Two-Factor authentication

Security guru Bruce Schneier has a post on the appropriate uses of two-factor authentication and when it doesn't work as intended. Apparently Microsoft plans to ditch passwords in Longhorn in favor of Two-factor authentication - Techdirt has more coverage of this.
UPDATE:Apparently E*Trade is planning on using Two-Factor as well.
