Hello,
I know this is primarily an Engineering form, but if there is interest,
Infineer has PCMCIA readers in a couple of different form factors. Please
contact Mark Marchetta at [EMAIL PROTECTED] at Infineer for more

1) Maybe I've already got several of these cards. Actually,
I have some of the Reflex 20s and some Gemplus 400s which are only
partially supported.
2) If the Linux crowd depended on this attitude, just how much
code to you think we would have? We don't wait, we reverse engineer,
if need be, and we code.
3) It's nice when manufacturers support us, but some don't because
they don't see a demand or a market. By creating drivers and investing
time and effort, we demonstrate to them that there are both.
I've talked personally to the Schlumberger rep for my area. I
made it quite clear to him that I'm doing evaluations. I also made
it quite clear to him that (and this goes for the entire international
company that I do research for) if there are no Linux drivers there would
be no sale. He can't magically squat and produce a driver but he is
being very cooperative.
