You don't want DSA on smartcards - at least not until they are able to do deterministic DSA (rfc-6979). ECC on smartcards is available for a very long time because that used to be the only method to do pubkey crypto with reasonable performance on cards without a hardware exponentiation circuit. The ZeitControl cards have support for some NIST curves but it is not yet supported by by the OpenPGP card application. I am not sure whether it is a good idea to go with the NIST curves because ECDSA suffers from the same problem has DSA. What about trying to implement Ed25519 on a Java card?
