There are links to several hardware RNG's on my crypto links page,
http://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/~pgut001/links.html (and there'll be more when I
get around to updating it). The most flexible ones are the serial-port based
ones because they're hardware platform and OS-independant. The SG100 (made by
a Swedish company) is probably the most readily available, although the
drivers are somewhat awkward to work with.
