I am not sure whether the card supports assigning multiple uses to a single key; however, I have been able to create 3 4096-bit keys on the card. I have used the signing and encryption keys and those definitely work. Unfortunately, I had problems with one card reader that worked fine with 2048-bit keys (Akasa AK-CR-03BK External Electronic ID and Smart Card Reader). Fortunately, Omnikey 1021 works fine for me. Neither of those has a separate pin pad, though.
Regarding 1024-bit keys support only… This applied to OpenPGP version 1 smartcards. As far as I know, these are no longer distributed to Fellows, so no need to worry about that.
