Using a card only to store a key generated on a PC is, IMVHO, plain nonsense -- and that's why I'm working on MyPGPid: I want to generate my keys on-card, backup 'em ONLY to other cards, and use a single card (per identity) while being able to read all my old messages, even if I change my DEC key once a year (in a test scenario I could store 40 keys on a 72k card, still have to test how many on a 144k one). PS: for the really paranoid, it's not hard to have a dead-man-switch against coercition: if you don't connect to some service for enough time, it uploads a revocation of all your keys to the keyservers so everyone is alerted that something happened to you.
