I don't recall whether I've tried a 1500.  If I remember right, the readers 
in those are a slightly different model.  On the other hand, OCF should 
support it, so it ought to Just Work(tm).  I suppose I can go try.

The cards are cryptoflex, partly because they were readily available and 
partly because I wanted to use them on other machines as well and knew 
someone who was writing an egate IFD. :-)  Unfortunately, they're a bit 
harder to get now.
