There is not a current list available.  I know of only 3 working readers.
The Reflex 60, 64 (pinpad), the Gemplus GPR400, and the so-called
DumbMouse.  It is just a passthrough reader.  I will try to compile a list
and get it on the site.  I don't believe that any of the PAM modules
currently support mainstream smartcards but it would be easy to do.  Yes,
smartcards are all similar, they must follow the ISO7816-3/4 requirements
but can add on functionality beyond that.

Greets,
