BoA should either make this feature more clear in their literature or remove it from the CVM list altogether. I bet more than one person were surprised when it asked for a PIN at places that don't support signature (only to find that they never did request a PIN from them). Then again, everyone's supposed to be able to accept signature eventually, so it might not be a problem in practice.
