<huge sigh of relief> On a personal note: i wouldn't mind if that part got disabled, Actually, i always use the top row on the keyboard, instead of the numeric-pad. For those ultra-secure-solutions people should use a dedicate reader+pinpad, class-3 preferably (with own window) Our security department might think otherwise. I'll check with them. But i think they won't make a big fuss, as for home and travelling purposes they've bought 50,000 folded readers. All our workplaces in the office are equipped with those HP-keyboards, i think that SPE should not be required there ;-) Hans _______________________________________________ opensc-devel mailing list opensc-devel@lists.opensc-project.org http://www.opensc-project.org/mailman/listinfo/opensc-devel
