Hi Jean-Luc,
thanks for your quick and extensive answer.
You're welcome!
I was referring to the GemSAFE GPK16000 card, since this seems to be the only one available in their webstore.
GemSAFE is not a Javacard (it is a proprietary OS) hence the cheaper price. It is not supported by Musclecard.
I wonder though, why I cannot find most of the Gemplus products mentioned on the Musclecard page in the Gemplus webstore. Did they rename all of their products?
These products are usually available through resellers.
The only reader available in their webstore is called GemPC Twin (USB and serial) but that one doesn't appear on the Musclecard "Source Drivers" list.
The GemPCTwin works very well with pcsc-lite 1.2.9 and Ludovic's CCID driver.
It also works with Panther's original PCSC stack with my CCID driver. This saves you updating the system framework to 1.2.9 (which would break Panther's native support).
Has anyone some experience with that one? Or would you rather recommend another hardware? I do believe that a GPK16000 und GemPC Twin USB would be a sufficient and low priced acquirement to get started with SmartCards (I want to do some private R&D before presenting it at work, so I don't have much budget available for it ;))
IMHO, the Twin is a good choice but for the card, you'll have to contact a reseller or get an Axalto card (beware that some cyberflex might not be compatible with the IA loader.
Cheers, JLuc.
