I used a couple Towitoko chipdrive M100 and also the USB equivalent. I find them a bit slower at detecting inserts than some of the other readers I have used but other than that I have no problem with them. And yes I have written data to a variety of cards with them. Usually not Javacards, mainly Atmel chips running a proprietary app or Hitachi and Infineon chips running Multos with a file system app on. > I've managed to get the samples to detect insertion and removal of the > smart card, but I was never able to get it to write a simple text...

I think you are expecting too much from OCF here. You want to put "hello world" onto the card but unless there is an app on the card capable of storing data like that you won't be able to do it. If you've just bought a reader and some bare cards there is unlikely to be anything on the cards - think of it as you have just bought a new computer with a hard disk but there is no Operating system installed or applications loaded - what would you expect the PC to be able to do in that state? Have a look at the Sun site for their example Javacard app (I think it is a purse app) that will give you an idea of what you need on the card before you can start storing data on it. cheers Brian --- > Visit the OpenCard web site at http://www.opencard.org/ for more > information on OpenCard---binaries, source code, documents. > This list is being archived at http://www.opencard.org/archive/opencard/ !
