Hi, I'm looking to buy a smartcard reader (just one, for me), and have
looked through the archives for suggested sites, and tried some I knew
(Kernel Concepts, Gooze) and not found anywhere I can buy a suitable
one.

I'll be using it with the OpenPGP v2 card. I would like it have a PIN
pad for secure PIN entry and modification, but not to be larger than
necessary (so it's pocketable) and not to have known problems (like
the Gemalto one that may decrement the PIN counter unnecessarily) or
vulnerabilities (like the Kobil one whose firmware can be easily
modified).

Looking through the "supported" and "shouldwork" lists I have filtered
down to these three: Vasco DP855, ACS APG8201, Vasco DIGIPASS 920
(they are all "shouldwork").

Here are the rows from the list: http://chris.boyle.name/tmp/readers.html

So the difficulty I have is where to buy any of these individually,
ideally in the UK or at least in Europe. None of the places I've
looked carry these models, only a bulky wedge-shaped SCM one or that
Gemalto one with weird PIN issues.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
