Hello Diego, That certainly sounds interesting. I can volunteer to test it out once you have some workable code - I have a couple of Oberthur cards that are collecting the dust :) What I might be even more interested in is if you could describe the development process you use for working on a JavaCard applet - there's very little resources out there to get people up and running with such exotic topic. The added value would be ability for more people to chip in with contributions :) Best regards -- Branko Majic Jabber: bra...@majic.rs Please use only Free formats when sending attachments to me.
