Oh? Just curious, do you mean it's insecure, or badly made, or just that the colours make it look like a baby's toy? :-) > I don't know where to get them, but Gemalto Ezio Shield (former Todos) > might be of interest.

You can see at http://pcsclite.alioth.debian.org/ccid/supported.html#0x08E60x3478 what I meant about the PIN counter: "Does send a VERIFY PIN command with an empty PIN to get the number of remaining trials. This may be problematic with some smart cards like the Belgian eID card that does not support this and will decrement the counter" Thanks, -- Chris Boyle http://chris.boyle.name/ _______________________________________________ Muscle mailing list [email protected] http://lists.drizzle.com/mailman/listinfo/muscle
