I recently purchased this book, browsed thru' it quickly, and am getting
ready to implement some ideas. I quite liked the approach and organization.
Apropos Part 3 of the book, I am now hunting for a suitable card reader here
in L.A.; this city seems quite bereft of smart card eqpmt and vendors. I
visited the Gemplus webstore, and figured I'll order their GEM PC 410
reader, but found no info about how long it takes to ship; I do not want to
have to wait 2 - 4 weeks to receive the stuff by mail.
(1) I have looked thru' the supported devices list on the OCF site. What
are other card reader models, besides the above GEM PC 410, that I can buy
to work with the IBM MFC 3.5 card that is included with the book? I am
using a PC running Windows 98 (and JDK 1.2).
(2) Any one know/recommend a store or sales office in the Greater L.A. area,
that I can get a card reader from TODAY?? (Gemplus has a local office, but
there's only a secretary-type person answering the phone; she couldn't help,
but gave me a number in Pennsylvania to contact :). I called up another
local company called MagTek; not much help there either -- they took down my
number and said they would call back. :)).
Thanks.
