This shows, that hardware can be made in a compliant way and that ACS can do that as well. But a few readers from ACS don't. I try to stick to readers that are compliant and there are plenty to choose from. Compare: Claiming support for HTTP after requiring a proprietary handshake is as good as claiming just the proprietary support. It means that you can only use software already implementing the proprietary handshake. Or hint, that it should be relatively simple to tweak existing software that already talks HTTP to also do the proprietary handshake. But it is definitely not HTTP as the rest of the world knows it. Nevertheless, I might try out the driver as I really like the form factor of ACS ACR83. I had the reader before the hacked driver was available, so it has been sitting uselessly in a box ever since.
