Do you want to use a card reader with or without PIN pad? In the first case, I recommend the SPR532 from ACM (also called pinpad pro). If you prefer a small one, try the SCM SCR 335. > I have previously had some correspondence with gooze > http://www.gooze.eu/ > they are open-source friendly but they have also told me about a year > ago that they can only supply cards up to 2048 bit (that is now the > minimum accepted by Debian, for example) but would look for 4096 bit > cards if there was sufficient interest. The Fellowship card supports up to 2048 bit keys (for signing keys even up to 3072 bit keys) because it is an OpenPGP v2.0 card. AFAIK, there are currently no cards that support 4096 bit RSA keys in the market at the moment (I might of course be wrong about that). All the best, Martin
