A rubber signature stamp is legal.  If you get one make sure that it
is self inking that way it's much neater and you don't have to worry
about carrying around a stamp pad.  Many doctors and lawyers etc use
them.  I'm not quite sure if they are valid for things like a will or
all other legal documents.  Before you start using the stamp you have
to go to your bank and have it put on their records as that being your
signature.

>And as I said to Dora Siren, what if someone steals it?

I'm not quite sure about the legal ramifications of someone stealing a
signature stamp.  I would imagine that it would be similar to if
someone stole your credit cards.  You would notify all people that you
have registered your stamp with.
